Call down mode, don't do it much, but I did here

The game was pretty typical. SB usually went too far with his hands, and I really wasn't worried about him. Curious about how folks would handle this situation given the action.

I would raise that blank. I think you went into call-down too quickly. If he reraises the turn ok let's call down.

I would raise the turn to get rid of the SB. He probably has outs to beat you. Going for the overcall on the river is fine.

raise the turn.

I wouldn't be surprised if this puts MP3 in call down mode.

When you see this type of action: limp re-raise, bet & call, bet out on a blank - what are you putting this guy on?

And if it helps any, I am quite the TAG. My pre-flop percentage has been really low for the past few days - I'm just chalking it up to card distribution. But how this guy is perceiving me factored into my decision.

Believe me, I'm really looking hard at my turn decision, especially now that I see it in black and white. I'm thinking a lot about the math v. my reads in spots like this. And I suppose this struggle resulted in the call.

if you thought he knew you well enough to be reading you as a TAG you'd damn well better be posting the read you had on him.
