nl400 1 pair river bluff

[BK_]

hi. ive recently started playing poker again and have been playing a little nl400. i'm less interested in whether or not you make this play than the reasons why a certain action is or isnt +EV.

my note on this guy says idiot, though thats all i remember about him. this could mean anything from loose passive to loose aggressive.
