Re: A situation I loathe
 

"LAGgish and on the decent side" isn't that an oxymoron? I think the move here depends heavily on the read of this guy. A lot of party LAGs could be raising the flop there with a draw, or with KJ or AT. I definitely don't like calling the flop - it's raise or fold depending on your read of him. Folding a good TPTK to this action from many LAGs on party 6-handed is a big long term losing move.

I hate folding here because you see a flush draw so often. But playing a big pot, which is what is going to happen if you call or raise, with TPTK is crappy. Those of you who say call are really going to push AI on a blank turn? Spewage. Next hand.

I'm still quite new to NL, but every time I read something like this I think, "Another Limit player trying to make the cross-over."

I make this comment not to condescend (when I first started NL play, I also thought LAG = bad), but to help convince you that limit mentality just doesn't apply to NL. TAG is not the only righteous path (although it's a great place to start for most players new to NL).

I had a hard time describing villian for you guys. I had played with him at lower limits before and I thought he was a donk. Now, he's playing up a level, and he seems to be playing decently. Loose preflop, aggressive postflop. Making some good decisions.

When he c/r'd me it was a total shock. And especially the size of the c/r. Alot of the folks I play with are terrified of betting more than $20. I ended up folding the hand. Like was said a few times in this thread, it would cost me my stack to find out if I had the best hand or not, and I reluctantly mucked.

Yes, this is online. They have $1/$3 and a $2/$5 and a $3/$7 in addition to all the normal limits you see at other sites. I kind of like being the only 2+2'er there though at this small tiny site, so......no comment as to where it is.
