    Default "I'm going to keep the pot small"

    ...that's what I said to myself when I saw this flop. But then...

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG ($35.07)
    Hero ($30.74)
    CO ($17.92)
    Button ($85.42)
    SB ($11.40)
    BB ($10.98)

    Preflop: Hero is MP with Q, Q. SB posts a blind of $0.10.
    UTG calls $0.25, Hero raises to $1.25, CO calls $1.25, 2 folds, BB calls $1, UTG calls $1.

    Flop: ($5.10) 8, 6, 9 (4 players)
    BB bets $0.25, UTG calls $0.25, Hero raises to $4, CO folds, BB folds, UTG calls $3.75.

    Turn: ($13.35) 6 (2 players)
    UTG calls $29.82 (All-In), Hero calls $25.49 (All-In) after letting his timer get down to about 4 seconds left.

    My read was he sucked(65/15/2). My thoughts when he pushed...I guess he could be pissed cuz he has 98, he could have 67 but would he really push that, T7/75 maybe but he wouldnt push that either, so I'm betting he has JT, or 98 with more weight to JT. Maybe I think to much at the $25.

    I fold, because if he is as bad as you say, than you will have better chance to destack him latter. Becuase if he is bad a 69 is within his range, cause we all know how many poeple love to play 69 just because.

    Don't think like this man! It's really weak. If we play within our bankroll then any reasonable chance to destack someone is an oppertunity worth taking. Hell if we take this cahance we could stack him now, then take the "better" oppertunity later and stack him again!

    I pretty much instacall this just because he made a crazy move.

    It's closer than most think, but this looks like a call.

    I'd fold. The thing with "bad" players is they tend to be transparent. He is limping, so he doesn't have a top 15% hand (he raises with them) so an overpair is probably out. There's also no flush draw. Which means he's hit something and probably hit it well - 56, 67, A6, 88. The only argument for calling, I think, is that he might have a now-counterfeited two pair, or maybe A9. If you think this is likely (and I'm not sure his flop play necessarily says it is, but he'd bad, so okay), then I could understand a call.

    Hmm. As I type this I'm becoming less and less sure if folding is write. Too close to call. Well done for having balls, regardless

    With your read I call.

    With no read I fold.... maybe... lol. I don't know, that move looks so insane to me that I really couldn't put him on a strong hand unless I've seen him do it with the nuts before. I might call!
