The lag likes to steal pots, probably not the type to x/c a lot like a passive fish, and the board is T65. This board doesn't help you very often and even a hand as strong as TPTK isn't comfortable stacking off. If he's going to attack this board then we can't fold overpairs. I kind of like it is T high since he probably squeezes TT, and he probably never has T5 T6. So he's got 65, 55, 66, and basically all the flush draws.
Fair enough. But can we flip the hand around? Let’s say I have a LAG image and a new guy, usually see him at 1/2, raises in the cutoff. SB calls and I call with J10dd. Flop come 5d6d10. I check, and he cbets 50. Check raise to $200. He pauses but calls.
Will all you 2/5 crushers say I should blast the turn all in? That you have decent fold equity and even if he’s at the top of his range (JJ+, AKdd) you got outs?
Should I be making a fundamental shift in my play to be the most aggressive at the able and be the first to jam? Obv we don’t play with our eyes closed, but should aggression be my goal?
