Default Re: Trapping a LAG

I think this is a fun post.

I would be willing to slowplay this hand. If you've doubled up twice with him, and he's at all observant, he knows you mean it when you show strength. If you raise him, you may take the pot there.

Which is fine. Nothing wrong with winning the pot there. But, personally, I would take this opportunity to add a little more risk for a bigger pot.

Though its certainly possible that the opponent is on a lot of different draws, I worry less about this heads up then I would with several tables.

Personally, I wouldn't let any single one of those cards stop me against one person in the blinds. I may occasionally have a huge beat, but I'm willing to bet against a single opponent, you're going to have the nuts on the river here 95% of the time.

If the turn and river brought both a 9 and a Jack, or 2 diamonds... I'd worry. But any one of the cards you mentioned alone wouldn't be enough to slow me down.
