Default Re: Live $2-$5 Semi deep against an idiot who barely knows the rules

You are only behind 5 hands on the turn and you have a decent number of redraws against all of them. Against a ridiculous player like this, there is no way you can lay this down, and given that, pushing is your best option. I like it. As for leading into the flop I like that too, although it might depend on the stack sizes of your likely bettors (which keep in mind might not happen in an unraised pot, which would suck). If a check raise all in will look natural I'd be more inclined to go for that, however a check raise for half your stack leaves you in a very awkward position if a blank hits on the turn and you're first to act. I like the lead because if it gets raised you can push allin on top of that. Well played hand all around.
