Default 30/60 Big Move

Button here is loose, somewhat passive, and probably too straightforward to have a J here. BB is a thinking LAG.

IMO you will not show a longrun profit.

I don't like it. Best case you are splitting with an ace (unless you pair that 9). Worst case you are against a pair and you are going to lose. The amount of time you win the whole pot is the exception.

Thinking lags will call here w/any ace and any pair. Since you think you can fold out a better A, you picked the wrong spot. A thinking TAG might fold something...but even then I am skeptical.

My perception of a thinking LAG is clearly different to yours. Do you play the 30/60?

To identify the source of our discrepancy. What is the point of yours? And do you play 30/60?

It's ok. Little too fancy maybe and probably slightly -EV, but definately not as -ev as people seem to think. Good image play at least.

The thinking LAG thought for a few seconds and folded (making me think that yes, Ark, he probably folded an ace), and the loose passive called. River was a 9, I bet, was called, and abused afterwards as he had 88. Fantastic for my image as mike pointed out!
