 Put this in Gabe's thread. I'm really interested in what people do in these spots against these kinds of player. I hate these.


Note: I was just kidding, do not actually put this in Gabe's thread, just expressing my interest in people's advice here is all! Think of this as a wordy "bump"

 I raise a lot more from the SB when there are limpers since i'm guaranteed OOP, no matter what the hand. Woulda raised the same amount with AA.

Yea betting the turn makes this much easier. There are also a lot of cards you don't want to see on the river assuming you are ahead on the turn.

I think you have to call turn and river here though.

 Tough spot. I think some percentage of time you see two diamonds here. I'm just not sure how big that percentage is, or if its more often than you find a 6.

The thing that sucks is that his turn bet is a huuuge value bet, and definitely not intended to scare you away.

I think you need to lead this turn. And if you're willing to call his turn bet and a river push, then maybe you should just check push this turn? You might get a 9 to call here being committed, A9d's maybe, or another diamond draw.

i'd assume he's donkish with the limp-call, ur "seems loose" read, and him with < full buyin...and with ~psb left, it's worth just betting (call a push, and whatever if he shows 76 or somethin..), or c/r all in on the turn, like griffery said.

also, i like the idea of raising less oop, since you will likely isolate the same amount but can control the pot size a little better. but it looks like in this hand that wouldn't matter much since the only caller was 75bb.

 betting the turn also gives us an excuse to fold here if villain gets aggro.
