So im playing 0.50/1 at dtd pretty aggressive table, I have a guy on my left who always calls my 3 bets in position and then tries to outmaneuver me which is why I didn't 3 bet.

So there is a straddle to 2, 8 players round the table, im in mp1, i pick up a 10s and decide to just call because I don't have any fold equity to the guy on my left 4 players also limp call, the straddler makes it 16, I have already seen him raise kings and queens from his straddle and each time before he raised to 10, so at this point im putting him on a hand which is not premium, I decided to jam, seems a bit cray now I had around £100.

SORRY IF IT ISN'T CLEAR I HAVE

Im not sure whether the limited amount of money in the pot makes this a good play? Any opinions?

I can see what you mean..

However I probably just flat and take the flop like 4 ways.. its highly unlikely this will be reraised again pre in these games.  If it is then you will get 'honestly' often from the straddler, I agree if he made it 10 with KK, QQ then 16 will be AK and worse more often than AA's etc.

Obv flatting 16 from 100 is only just on the brink of 'setmining' ability but with the likelihood of it going 3-4ways then you have your big pot.

Don't think it would be bad to make it 38-44 and call it off.. (any more and he wont be shoving worse..)




Also, irrelevant of the villain on our left I'm still opening this pre... with aggrofish on my left I'm just tightening my opens and making them bigger.  They will often not adjust and stil play back, now with a greatly inferior range.

Nothing really wrong with jamming in that spot, you are going to be called by plenty worse in those games.

As to limping initially, raising is better.
We don't just raise to get folds, so the fact you have no 'fold equity' with the guy to your left, isn't a problem.
If he's calling every time, his range is v.weak, and you haven't got to worry too much about an overcard on the flop.

problem is he is also floating all of my flop bets, I wasn't completely sure what to do except tighten up massively. Its more my a 10, a j maybe a q hands that im more worried about 3 betting as im not often going to hit the flop and i will have to just give up or go for bluffing a few barrels.

Best reaction to someone who is calling you way to wide preflop and floating a lot post flop is to open/3bet a tighter range (this automatically makes a lot of his calls bad vs your tighter range) and to bet wider for value OTF and chk raise turns for value.
