Re: 88 Out of Position
Sounds very simply like a fish who's praying you have AK. Is he right? His line still sucks, but thats why he is a fish, no?

Similar most questions in poker it depends. More info is needed. What limit? Read on the player? His perception of you? etc.

I like a check/call here. If he has AK or AQ he isn't going to pay off our river bet anyways so the check behind doesn't cost us. It may induce him to bet a smaller pocket pair for value...
