Back with a boat!

    Default Back with a boat!

    Hi guys! Back on the tables after a long hiatus which I think has done me really good. I’m not quite the tilty aggro monkey I used to be so not leaking quite as much money anymore. Obv still rubbish, so hoping you guys can give me some good advice!

    Villain is pretty reggy, 16/16 over 70 odd hands. He probably sees me as an agro fish – I’ve been flatting lots against him IP, raising flops etc. This clearly tilted him a bit – when I 3b his HJ open from the CO he insta 4b jammed AJo really deep. This came maybe 10 hands later.

    Obv flatting pre with uber implied odds; he opens pretty wide in the CO. Also flat the flop with my overpair. Then I’m not sure whether I took the best line on the turn. I figured he was pretty tilted and I could get value from Ax, Kx, by raising. When he jams this uber deep, he could be doing this with smaller pps, maybe tilting with Ax? Obv he has better pps in his range, not many 5s to worry about.

    Should I have raised this turn? How do I approach this jam?

    Don't think I'm folding turn vs a tilted 5NL reg here.

    imo: Calling>>>>>>>Folding>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Raising.

    The problem with raising is that this guys aggro and tilty right now so we aren't gonna get the call/call from A highs that we're hoping for, rather we're gonna get 3-bet by a range we can't continue vs since he plays a pretty tight preflop range and has already shown himself to be depolarised, the type of guy to stack of with AJ pre probably also goes crazy with 99 etc here.

    If he's mega tilted though I don't think we can fold a hand this strong here.

    Oh yeah, fold as played!

    Yea, having thought more about it, I agree with calling on the turn.

    I get myself into a really bad spot by raising this turn. I'm way ahead of his betting range here and I'll be happy to call most river bets, but I'm probably not doing too hot against his jamming range, even if he is tilted!
