Isolating with A5s
 

15/30 6-handed:
UTG+1 is a strange fish. Sometimes raising Q10o UTG sometimes limping 10 hands in a row.

UTG fold, UTG+1 limps, CO has A5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], you?

I think this is pretty dependent on button and moreso SB and BB. If SB and BB are pretty tight I think you can raise, if they are moderately loose I'd call especially with 2/3 SB/BB structure. You also have to factor in whether you and others have been isoraising the fish, if you have been doing that quite a bit then your raise won't be able to isolate as frequently as you'd like.

me too.
a5s is nowhere near the bottom of my isolation raise range.

I think you can limp or raise dependant on your image (sometimes I like limping to passify my table image some, but against this player it's I think you'd be giving up some ev not to play.

Me dos. I definitely want to get this heads up with the fishy.

Yea I think this is an easy raise here. What is the lowest range of hands you raise here?

With me its prob j9s+, and suited ace, A7o+, Q9o+

Does that range look good in this kinda spot? Too tight Too loose?
