The only hands you beat are TT 99 and AK and AJ if he is that loose.

I dont think he is doing this with 66 or lower. Limp call and then sudden shove just screams strength/trap to me.

Your also not getting 2-1 in which case I might consider a call being possible but fold here. so NH WP.

If this was a complete maniac though and I would need reads then this screams complete bluff and I Call.
But I would need notes and having had seen this before etc etc.


puukkkkeeeeee...

this spot sucks..

i probably sigh fold in game, (ive been 'trapped' by weak Qx hands here in spots like this before). I can see a lot of arguments for a call. he pretty much never has a set or an overpair or two-pair, so the only hands you are worried about are the rest of the Qx hands.

I can see a call against loose aggressive opponents, but folding is the safer play with your relative chip stack. This one could do either way imo... stats will help a lot here


Yeah that spot is pretty awful... I take a fold generally. That said, I have had hands in spots like this where I've called due to being very shortstacked and they can sometimes turn up with all kinds of retarded hands.
