Op is 16/6 over 88 hands
My table image is: well I'm a donkey to him. Because I won a hand and stacked off with top pair crap kicker to a terrible calling station just as he sat down and he posted "lol king crap wins again, at least it was soooooted"

Its good. You have to call a shove though. I quite like the bet sizing too. I think it makes it less likely that he shoves with something like 99 (rather than folding), and it means our decision isn't borderline when he does shove.

you're two for two. Raising it up to 3.30 though is probably just as effective and better.

A very fishy question, but lost again on this one:
A potsized raise here, is that:
1. Villains bet (1.00) + the pot (2.30) = 3.30
We raise to 3.30
or
2. We raise with 3.30, so we raise to 3.30+1.00=4.30.

The pot is 1.30 to start with, villain bet 1.00 so now the pot is 2.30 when it comes to you. You want to put 3.30 on the table in front of you.

ok... So the concept I was experimenting with was equalizing stacks for the flush draw... is that correct?
and how did you devine 3.30? I'm certiain it didn't come out of the air.
