Default garbage in the BB

5-10 party 6 handed. Folded to the sb, who completesI have a note on thesb that reads. "Limps with garbage, will bet out as a bluff and follow through till river".
You hold T3o (or whatever)
Flop comes A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
and the sb bets into you.

How often do you attempt to blow him out of the hand?
and do you try it on the flop, turn or river?

The pot has nothing in it just fold.

Would you mind applying a percentage to that? 100% fold, 99%, 95%?.
I'm just curious- i basically have been folding 100% of the time here.

Sounds to me like you better have a hand that will beat a bluff if you want to continue against this player. King high might suffice in your example.

i agree. seems like you need to find a better way to cash in on this player, which he is obviously offering.

My note on the player is to imply that he will bet outon the turn/flop/river if unopposed. I am not thinking of calling him to a showdown, but am wondering how often i need to pop him to prevent him from taking down small pots every time that he is first to act heads up.

the pot is way, way too small to worry about. Fold 100% and wait for a better time.

sounds like you are playing against me. anyway, call him down or raise as often as you have a pair or some sort of draw.
