As I wouldn't be comfortable getting it in think I just flat.

Any history worth talking about? You 3bet him this table and what do you think his image is of you?

You think you've got too many chips here to size up a 5bet jam? If you're playing 40k it can go like 2k 5.5k 11k 40k but with 50k seems a bit much but prob still profitable if he's capable of 4betting enough and opens wide enough here.

call

i think history has a lot to do with this spot. I played with him much more last year than this year. Last year i played tight bad. this year good/psycho

I think it's good for the long term if you're playing with him a lot to set yourself up with this spot. If I was opening relentlessly and you put this kind of resistance up then I'm obviously not going to open on you as much and give you some breathing room.

I think it's ok to go with the 5b plan but I do wish you had like 40k instead of 50. For that reason think anyone that says call is going to be fine doing so, but I also like the side on sticking it in his eye. Bubble doesn't matter as much when this is worth so many chips but the min cash in the 100r is always pretty big in terms of a nightly session.

were going step by step with this HH. out of interest, do you take the same line if you were theclaimer, than as danisking, and which line do you think i took?

Depends how many tables I've been playing and what mood I'm in, I deffo take this line sometimes but I imagine if I'm playing 100r I'm prob not bashing everyone up so most of the time this line isn't going to work.

call (maybe fold if they squeeze happy behind), 3b/5b seems pretty bad
