well i figured if i raised big enough preflop i would take it down there, and when he called there was so much in the pot that if he didnt hit he would have to fold. Its probly a 70% chance he didnt hit. How would you have playd this differently? check flop?

In all fairness he's playing position rather then the strength of the cards, which I commend.

That being said when a guy who sucks bad enough to open with a min raise calls a 10x reraise and the flop comes AQx you can safely check fold.

You're playing LAG REALLY poorly if you are continually doing this at tables. You need to be loose enough to decieve the opponents and have them think your crazy, but still have a little bit of credit... or no credit at all... but then you need to ajdust what hands you play

Also if you have already established that maniac image, you need to start making this play with *real* hands.

Otherwise its donkyism. WHat do you think they're going to do? Fold to the idiot who keeps bluffing Jack high for all his chips into them and gets busted?

OP: The problem w/ playing position is they will get attached to Ace high or any pair.

you must have lived under power lines or something. even crazy LAGS pick better hands than J6.
