wierd 88 hand

[TMFS9]

BB is really loose and fairly passive, UTG is on my buddy list is loose and goes to showdowns a lot and has stats of 55/14. I had a note saying that he limp reraises with random chit. Is there any way to play it differently?

Im gonna guess that he has top two or better here. Seems like he is trying to string UTG along.

Given your action up to that point I call the river as well. I would have to be VERY sure that I was crushed and not being bet into by a busted flush or straight draw to fold here.

I prob check the turn though, and call a bet from BB that is not called by UTG, or a bet by UTG after a check from BB.

Interested to hear others thoughts though.

I like it given the reads. I'm paying off the river too. I think its an AK-miss desperation donk-bluff more than 9% of the time. NH
