hero asian, tag, possibly perceived as raising alot of hands pre. $2400
villain mawg seems to call a little too wide pre, but othwrwise doesnt spew off too much. Playing a bit looser than tag but doesnt generally bluff big. Able to unpolarize river range for thin value. covers

Hero buys the button from the blind
3 limps for $5
villian limps btn
hero raises AQo from the blind for $50
3 calls
villian backraises to $305

hero?

+1 sigh folding

possibly avoid getting those raising chips before it's your turn to act. Maybe he saw you getting ready to raise.

Without some history fold. It's a sigh/fold because your often up against a middle pair. If it isn't then it's more likely AK or a big pair then a bluff. Villain's raise makes it too expensive to try and find out.

Folding and trying to forget about it since this spot is so uncommon.

I've seen some people do really weird ****, most of the time this is something like 55-99, AK, but occasionally its something weird like AJs or JJ+. Just not worth the risk to find out imo.

I've limp/raised button after limpers 3 times ever. All 3 were in the same PLO game (with a rock) vs. the same whale in the SB. Most people have never done it/seen it.

Opening raise is too high. Make it $30-35. Villain is probably stealing very wide here (I'd include J10s), but thinks he's re-stealing against you.

He's either doing this because he expected you to raise against limpers, or he changed his mind and spazzed once he saw your sizing. I wouldn't discount the spazz possibility.

This is obviously a fold, though.

Lol at villain ever limping behind a good hand after OTB after 3 limpers.

pre is fine.

raising to 650/c looks pretty good to me. He can`t really have anything that has us dominated.

Did you look at your cards before villain limped?
How would this villain react to a 4bet?
Why do you think he made it 305?

I would imagine that this villian will call any small 4! (750 or less) since it is pretty much a minraise. If I 4! any bigger than 750ish then I am pot committed and have to go with it.

I think there's a high likely hood he thinks im FOS and is trying to resteal my percieved steal IP after seeing so much dead $. Its extreeeeeemely unlikely he just overlimped the btn with a hand that crushes me

If he calls, we are supposed to rep AA on any board decent board that we don`t hit like K82, T52 etc. ..
