K5o in sb

BB is tight, and I assume fairly aggressive. He hasn't shown down many hands, but he hasn't played many either. He probably sees me as kind of a bully. MP is the reason I am still at the table...very loose, usually passive, sometimes tricky when he feels you are pushing him around. I have been looking for excuses to enter pots with him.

this is going to turn into a "fold that trash in the sb" thread.
So why don't i start it?

Flod that trash in the sb.

On the other hand the turn call is interesting...

7.5-1. I don't think the flush is good more than half the time when it hits, and your two pair/ trips outs aren't all good either. The difficulty i see is that you will often be check calling a losing hand on the river, but having it checked around when you are ahead.

If the club comes do you call his river bet?

Yes, I assumed this would be the case. My VPIP is 19.6 and slipping...I am looking for situations to add some hands....I know..."add hands on the button" yada yada yada. I wanted to play against mp [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Yes, I would. (or perhaps I should lead?) The only reason I called the turn raise was b/c of the 5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

i am okay wiht the turn call if when you improve to the winner youcan get a bet out of him most of the time, without paying two bets when you lose.
