UTG+1 has been playing loose. I have him at 53/23 over 47 hands. Notes indicate that he'll play almost any 2 suited cards and that sometimes he min-raises with them from late position. Also, he tends to be a bit of a calling station postflop (won't fold top pair, will call any bet with a flush draw).

Table perception of me must be that I'm very aggro pre and postflop, especially from position. Mostly, I keep finding QQ+ on the button and have been playing it similar to the hand below. However, most of the time I take it down with a cbet. Otherwise, I've been very quiet from the early positions.

UTG+1 bets $9.89 all in, Hero ... ?

I hadn't seen him make any outlandish bets yet, think he only pushed all in postflop once (aggressor), and his opponent folded. Usually, he makes 1/2~3/4 psb, but I haven't seen him bet that much -- usually he's calling a more aggro opponent down.

My first instinct was to call, but I wanted to see what you guys thought.

Dump it like a ton of bricks. He knows you have AA or KK and you are either drawing dead or to two outs.

Bingo. Your hand is face-up at this point, and he's relying on the fact that you can't lay it down.

I called because I'm a POW I guess. Villain had 32 and MHIG
