In this thread I shall elicit opinions about how to bluff the LAGfish.

Contrary to common opinion I don`t agree that its acceptable to become a tight pussy when faced with a adjustable and smart LAGfish. I agree with most that one needs widen ones calling range, but also on boards like this when there isn`t much hand that can call, I feel that a well-timed rebluff and maybe even rerebluff can be imperative to maximizing ones crush rate versus this type of opponent.

Feel free to post some hands where you yourself bluffed away a LAGfish... successfully or failingly.

Hero (CO): $1,971 Excuse me but I did not have my stats recorder at the time of play.
BTN: $2,803 - tight, nitty player on a heater
SB: $2,198 - The LAGfish in question
BB: $390 - another bad reg who is slowly bleeding his moneys away to the rest of the table
UTG: $1,144 - This player's play is reminiscent in style to that of legendary David Peat 'Viffer'.

SB posts SB $2, BB posts BB $4, Hero posts ante $0.50, BTN posts ante $0.50, SB posts ante $0.50, BB posts ante $0.50, UTG posts ante $0.50

Pre Flop: (pot: $8.50) Hero has T 3
UTG raises to $14, Hero calls $14, fold, SB calls $12, BB calls $10

Flop: ($58.50, 4 players) K K 4
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets $43, SB raises to $112, fold, fold, Hero raises to $275, SB calls $163

When he raises I feel he is respondng to my clear Position Play with some nonsense or the rare triple KKK, I do not feel he has a pocket pair much as he must 3bet the higher ones preflop and a lot of K-rag fold or 3bet pre, KA and KQ 3bet pre, other K`s trap some amount of the time etc. All in all I feel this LAGfish is particularly prone to have excessive air here.

Turn: ($608.50, 2 players) 7
SB checks, Hero bets $428

Well, so he has less air than I thought, but still some nonzero amt, given I probably check back the flush draw; if he has some kind of fd himself it likely avoids the 7 given flopline, and possibly he can have a 4x or 55 too. Who knows. By the time of the turn we have each invested around 300 Dollars into the middle so I think there is enough ammunition yet to blow off all the above hand types for sure, each alone not substantive but combined representing a decent part of his range. Katchoo Katchoo!!!

lol this thread is so full of awesomeness. I'm now going to look up other posts by author. I can only hope that several of them are half as entertaining as OP.

lol

standard

Oh come now, guys.

Hand is tertibly played and completely unnecessary...not much else to say about it really.

I wish I could play on party poker.

fold pre

You're such a tight pussy(cat).

u seem to want some real responses

this is abject madness on every street, imo. if you're going to pull these kinds of shenanigans, pull them with a hand with at least SOME kind of showdown value or backdoor equity.

what is an adjustable and smart LAGfish

I'm in a coffee shop and starting laughing out loud (and looking even more awkward) when I got to: GLOVES ARE OFF!

Fish are pretty smart. They travel in schools after all.

I reason with everything you said OP, wp.
