alright, this guy has a pfr of 15% and vpip of 50%
I am consistently having trouble playing top pair top kicker against guys like this. I think preflop I probably should have repopped him (although maybe I should've just folded and waited for another hand, which is what I would usually do with AJo). I just have an really hard time taking villain off of KJ or even JQ here...but often I see these terrible players just calling pot bets with 2 pair or an overpair, they never seem to raise. How do you play this?
