Sands PA 1/2 on a Sunday Afternoon
Villain: Early 20s Asian kid has been at the table since I sat down about 2 hours ago. It has been hard for me to get much of a good read on this player. He seems a little too lose pre flop and a little too tight post flop. I have seen him fold to a ton of C-bets. When he does call I see him reverting to what I would call ABC poker. He has about $225 and I cover
Hero is dealt red KK in late/middle position. 2 limps - I make it $20 to go for both value and to thin the field. Villain calls on the button, all other players fold.
Flop: 8J5 rainbow
I lead out for $20, Villain raises to $50 fairly quickly. Hero tanks for about 30 seconds then jams AI for about $155 on top. Thoughts?
Immediately following my action I was at the table thinking this was a horrible shove as I just folded out all worse hands and guaranteed a better hand could call me. Villain is in the tank and I really am just thinking what an awful shove. But what do you think?
