Playing against the overbetting donk NL100

Postby phytopath » Sun Jul 29, 2007 12:11 pm

Playing against the overbetting donk, playing an 8-max on an iPoker site.

This guy has been pushing all in into tiny pots on the flop probably about 4 times since I had been at the table, I haven' t seen them go to showdown. His stats are 55/17/1.5, he seems to be really weak when he bets small and I pushed him off a few hands when he bets 1/8th pot or so on the flop.

I have about 110 so does the donkey
Anyway this hand I am in the HJ with [7s][6s]

a couple limpers before me, I limp aswell, the donk in the SB completes and the BB checks.

The flop: (6 players) 6$ [8d] [4s][3s]

the donk open pushes from the SB for about 110, folded around to me, does anyone call this?

Calling is at best somewhere around neutral EV and huge variance. You're 48/52 against A8o but your main problem is that he could be doing this with a higher flush draw, in which case you're boinked. I see no reason to call this.

I probably don't call because even though you have a zillion outs, you're still not getting good EV odds to call an all in (versus pushing).

Besides, against this type of guy, you'll always have tons of chances. Why make a stand now?
