Dancing with the Big Stack nearing the Bubble

[WPIL]

Big Stack has been very agro and bullying people off pots, only saw him show down a pair of twos so far although have only been on his table for 30 minutes or so

I have a comfortable stack

Would rather 3b/f the flop than flat oop to someone who is going to most likely barrel his entire range ott.

As played I sigh fold the turn.

For sure. All we achieve from this line is proving that he's aggro. We're never getting to showdown taking this line unless we wager all of our coins

[chatban]

I think the main problem is you rep absolutely nothing by c\r flop on that board. As played its a fold.

Chat Ban - I didn't C/R Flop - I Lead (not Leeds) Out

my bad mate. Ok now HE reps nothing! But its such a sigh spot. It.s pretty crazy to jam but Stack sizes are really awkward. Annoying really. Does anybody jam here?

[WPIL]

I did Jam

[WPIL]

Pretty Bad?

[chatban]

From an ICM perspective probably. As you said its near the bubble. Pretty gross if he just turned a pair to his fd  and snaps off though!

[AlexMartin]

sometimes ur gonna get outplayed

just fold the flop. he wants to c/r and rep abso nothing fair enough let him do it we've got near the bottom of our range and in a spot where it's almost impossible to hero him down. Wait till we have KK and hero him down then.

Getting involved in this stuff is just pure ego driven spew imo, jamming the turn is also the nut-low line calling the turn and folding the river is actually better imo vs a generic villain at this stage of the donkament.

There is also a chance he just has a TEN. we opened a good hand and made a good Cbet, some hands just aren't meant to be if he wants to make a terrible bluff let him. I know it's tilting when people are obviously rolling there faces in the keyboard but we've just got to let it go sometimes ....
