    I don't understand how A5 and 65 aren't in his range at least part of the time. He's clearly a splashy/bad player, 40 hands of stats can be drastically different than what he is actually running, and c/jamming reps nothing worse than straights and 77, maybe 33 :S.

    If this is RUSH I'd pretty much snap fold. If this is regular 6max I'm probably going to end up calling a bit more often because I'd be curious to get a read on how he plays. For example, if he plays sets like this you can infer he is EXTREMELY trappy who likes to bet small to induce raises. If he shows up with 65 here you know that he's one of those players that will play SC from pretty much every position and leads their draws/rarely folds draws.

    Like I said, a read like that is pretty invaluable when you have someone at your table for an extended period of time and while notes on people in RUSH is nice I probably wouldn't pay a stack to have one like this since we won't be seeing him all that often.

    PS. talking about spots like this is pretty fucking vital so anyone who says LOL STD COOLER YOU BITCH is straight up wrong.

    Preflop is fine

    Raise the flop bigger - why? Look at your opponent. The read given tells you hes a monkey so if he donk bets mash the raise button! Yes, a half decent player here will know what hand you have - or at least reassess their range - a 30/11 whale wont - AA is teh nuts hes never folding here!

    If you play the flop better - eg raise to $3.00 and villain calls you then have a pot of $8.00~ on the turn and when you bet the turn your not folding given the odds anyway and if he sucked out cool. If you were behind then the read given by you as your HUD says you dont care it was set over set as villain is just a whale anyway.

    If this were a hand against a decent (for 25nl) TAGG winning player at 25nl you'd probably puke fold the turn a good percentage of the time as a TAGGs range here is much tighter and contains the nuts more - but then they may not call the flop raise.
