 No real reads yet, but he's seen me take down a few pots in a row I think, and might be thinking I'm a bully...

might be that I'm giving him no respect for playing at that level, but I call...
also factor in that I'm a little pissed right now. :P

Without reads this is hard. Break it down like this -

Hands you should fold to that he might make this play with - 99, 88, 55, 76. I guess he could have AA also, if he's a moron.

Hands you should call that he might make this play with - QQ, JJ, TT, A9, flush/straight draws, and maybe 77 or 66.


I'd say with the amount of money in the pot and the number of hands you can beat, call.

I'd call if you read he's trying to stop a bully.

However, I'd guess you lost by the river.

either you were way behind (to a set, probably) on the flop, or an Agg. calling PF with rags thinking he had the best of it on the raggy board.

I probably call.
If I had a hammer
I'd drop in the morning
I'd drop in the evening..

I think he was ahead of you - I'd fold.

He had 77, had him beat at the time, but he made a straight. Not too upset, as long as my money was in when I had the best of it. Afterwards he told me he thought I had AK and was just trying to push me out.

I think I lost 3 big hands last night on the river, ouch...

For some reason, flop allins arent usually as bad as turn or river allins, but still im wary of doin it with a single pair against any full stack.
