I would consider folding against a tight player if he jams , board is kinda dry.and yea it's an easy value bet on the river with A10 (don't see what u are scared of)

250BBs deep, I don't think it'd be great to get it in with one pair without a very specific read that villain is spewy.Also, don't quote me on this being correct, but I would 4bet a little larger since we're so deep with the CO.

[KingJames 11]

@AA- even for 250bbs I'd get it in w/ AA in a 4b pot. He can over-value JJ-KK so yeah... not folding unless I knew he was pretty nitty.@ATs- I like your line. without a read that villain is a tard, it's hard to get called by worse. tbh, vs most passive villains that we encounter in the micros, I think that c/f is the best line on the river. flop and turn sizing look good to me. if the flop was a bit more draw heavy I'd cbet a tad larger.hit me up on skype (kingjames_kj) if you ever want to do a sweat session. I'd be down to watch you and give you a few pointers, although I'm effin trrbl at poker

James, what's your logic for opening for under 2.5x? I generally raise 3bb + 1bb per limper.

In tourneys I know what to do with hands like these in SB but cash may be different. I have only 20 hands on the raiser but he's playing TAG so far.

pretty easy fold, you don't want to flat and a play kj oop, and 3betting seems a tad spewwy.

James, what's your logic for opening for under 2.5x? I generally raise 3bb + 1bb per limper.

I do it on the button. I'm gonna open like 40+% of hands otb unless the blinds like to 3b a lot, so it makes a cheap steal. Also, you can flat 3bets a bit wider as the stacks will be deeper. ie I open 2.4x, they make it 7x (pot basically) or even 8x and you can still defend and profitably set mine and stuff...The counter is that a lot of villains will call and c.f flops, so we should make them pay more monies.I'm just in the camp of keeping the stacks deeper so that any sort of post flop edge I may have can be utilized.I'm starting to think I'm really terrible at this game tho. I can cooler people and then just lose slowly other than that I think. Slight loser with rakeback... pretty down after today
