Opp is a 50/20/2.5 tourney donk. Haven't seen any particular pre aggression from him.


$0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
5 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG Glassjaw84 ($6.60)
CO chrisleto ($78.20)
BTN cardsharkk04 ($65.40)
SB Hero ($98.20)
BB sz128 ($50.70)

Pre-flop: ($0.75, 5 players) Hero is SB
Glassjaw84 goes all-in $6.60, chrisleto calls $6.60, 1 fold, $6.35 to Hero ($97.95)?

3-bet/fold to a 4-bet because this guy is a donkey and depending on how aggro/spewy he is pf i would get it in. vs this player i think youre losing a lot of value by calling

I think I call, pretty close here though. I just feel like if you threebet your essentially bluffing.

The more I think about this, this is a call and it's not that close. The only situation where a raise would be good is if the short stack has a worse ace, and the CO has a hand like 99/TT that he'd fold to a 3-bet.

I think the short stack has a pocket pair often enough, that getting heads-up doesn't really help you, if you call and miss the flop then you're usually not winning the pot anyway. You might as well just call and play your hand for value depending on what the flop is. The CO's preflop range is really strong so I wouldn't try to push him off it.

I think I 3 bet big probably get it in if those stats are legit. If CO had a big hand I think he usually 3 bets himself. His flatting range here should be like KJs+ 77+ IMO, most of which he'd fold to a big 3 bet and if you get it in I don't think your worse than flipping almost ever but im drunk kinda.
