He likes to limp but he doesn't like to ...So... He likes to limp but he doesn't like to rise. And he's probably limping even in bad positions with hands he shouldn't limp with. <br /><br />We're not going to fold here just because of the third spade or the (slight) risk of villain holding QJ for a higher straight. With such a fishy player the range is quite wide. Some suggestions:<br /><br />AJ-A8<br />JJ-66<br />T9, T8, 98<br />... and perhaps even some worse hands.<br /><br />I would expect this line with everyone of this hand, either as the usual slowplay of a set or the usual passive, fishy calling. But it's true that because of his way of playing there's also a number of hands that have you beaten right now. Fish often loooooves suuuuuuuitedness (I've seen them playing completely ridiculous hands like J6s from UTG). So with the risk of being accused for passive play I probably just call here. On such a tricky board even this amount of $ is a good profit and I cut my losses if he's in fact holding a flush or JQHenriknoreply@blogger.com
