This seems like a relatively common situation, so I figured that it would be good to post a hand for it.

50/100? seems like the blinds are 25/50? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

if the former, push.

if the latter, then i would put him on a continuation bet. i'm thinking my overpair is good, and i want to extract more $ from him.

i'd min check/raise on flop. then all-in on turn if non-scare card came out.

(unfortunately, this is party poker. he'll call with a flush draw, and catch that miracle river card more often than the 1 to 4 for flush draws. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] )

so what did he have?

Low Buyin Player here**

You should probably put him on a range pf.

If you believe he has AA-QQ, your playing for set value. In which case the pf raise is too big to call. Fold pf(your out of position too)

If you believe he's doing this with any thing less, than I think a check/push is in order seeing how no overcards came.

u,

what about all the pushes over hero's bet he's going to see with 99-AA, as well as AK, AQ, AJ, and some other crap?

I think that betting out is bad if you intend to fold to an un-named opponent.

Pretty sure we're arguing the same thing cit. I agree betting out is bad and would C/R this flop all-in.

[citanul]

okee doke.

yeah, i do different things depending on different opponents. there's lots of donks who will not call the cr all in but will push all in with a bluff. there's also lots of donks who will call the cr all in but will just toss their hand if bet into and they miss. weird [censored].

I have played with Yossarian before, and the half pot continuation bet on the flop leads me to believe that he has AK or AQ here. He would bet more strongly with QQ upwards.

I think this is a check-raise push on the flop. If he bet something like T250, I think this might be a fold.

Edit: just as I thought (saw the results). His call is baffling though, I guess he's not as solid as I thought he was.

while i love your position of inducing someone to bluff, i dont think it works well if you dont know if you are ahead/behind which newt clearly is as demonstrated by this post.
