UTG raises to $0.20, Hero ?

What's likely to happen if you flat? How does this guy play postflop? Will a lot of people flat behind you and will you have to c/f a lot of flops? or a lot of turns?

What is his continuation range to a 3bet? How wide does he open UTG? Is he likely to 4bet?

How does he play postflop? Does he check/give up when he doesn't hit, does he bet tiny with the nuts, can we read him well? Does he triple barrel? How happy are we calling down with TPGK?

Can we, or should we, be stealing pots for him (probably not)? Etc etc..

tcc1: he is fish i rly dont think he is going to raise less from UTG but if you want to know this stat ok
PFR from early:45%

so i think we beat his raising range pretty good, as you can see he cbet 100% so i think we play it fit or fold postflop and we can get good value from TPGK or TPTK hands if we hit as he is aggro and we have position on him dont have any notes on him, so no reads about his betsizing postflop

we are only 7 in table in that time, so i think its more unlikely someone is going to raise/call behing, there is no maniac behind

i post his 3 bet because i dont have his 4bet range, but as you can see he 3bet more then AA only, so i think if i 3bet him, he can 4bet pps and ofc some hands he thinks are "nice" so i just get into bad situation if i 3bet for value and he 4bets back as i wont know if i beat his hand or not even if he call my 3bet i think he can push me out of my hand with his aggresion if i miss so for me its just call pre and see flop but want to see other opinions

Solid. /thread

tcc1: thats not end so i called him pre and now going flop

Pre Flop: ($0.15) Hero is UTG+1 with J A
UTG raises to $0.20, Hero calls $0.20, 5 folds

UTG bets $0.30, Hero ?

in my opinion raise is best to protect your hand from draws as he is going to call draws and i think all pps/Jx/9x hands do you agree? and if raise, how much? i have problem with sizing of my raise allways :/

Given how bad he is if you called and got that flop I'm raising and stacking off.

smooth call pre is the best play unless you want you have some very aggressive people behind you. You want to manipulate the fish's range here by not folding out hands that you crush.

Raise to .80 - 1.00 and call a shove. We want to invite a shove from draws, AK / AQ / KQ / KJ / 10s and worse Jx hands
