Default blind battle against a passive fish

Eurobet 6 max $5/10

BB was a passive calling station. That said, he was capable of betting middle pair into an UTG PFR who had 2 cold callers. He also called every raise when in the blinds and about 60% of raises in general.

I am in SB with black sixes

folded to hero who raises

I think I can find a turn fold. He's probably not raising with air, unless theres some history here. I don't fold the flop incase its a free card bluff, in which case we may get to a showdown cheaper.

Protip: Don't put people on single hands. Even passives go weird when its a blind war.

Don't drink and post. Please.

Passive = calls, only bets on sets, straights, flushes and 2 pair

A passive player is not usually betting mid pair into a PFR

Thanks blackize. Your right, he wasn't at all passive. I only played with him for over an hour. I guess I should have made my read on just one hand and ignored all the other hands.

Which is it now? Is he a passive calling station or a guy that is betting middle pair for value?

He was a guy who played very passively (and loose) most of the time but did surprise me on a hand or two.
