I'd say that the call PF was even debateable. So this guy instantly goes all in on the flop eh? Well unfortunately I do not think your middle pair is good and i'd stay away from this hand. He could be laying a trap for your LAG style. You don't have too many chips but you can definately wait for better hands. I assume you won this one though? Oh, and Beck_AA is a pretty well known online player, i think.

Hmm, not sure I like the preflop call. Other than that, I really doubt Villain would instapush that flop if he held a big PP. You might be ahead here. It's not the worst call I've seen, thats for sure.

I don't really like any of these 3 calls, mainly because the players after you have 13-15BB stacks (and antes reduce the effective stacksize even more) and I don't see the gain in playing medium suited gappers passively with those stacksizes.

I agree. Preflop, if you're going to play this hand, do so aggressively or get out of the way. I would not have called his push either. JMO

Raise pre-flop or fold. There's no use in open-limping in this spot with a marginal hand.
I'm not sure if I like this call. Villain raised out of position, he usually has something here.
Also, why can't he move-in with a big pair here? He's betting 30k into a pot of 20k, not really an overbet. Plus the fact Hero just limp/called, there's a good chance Villain won't induce a bet with a check.
I think you're behind here a good portion of the time.

your right , it was a bad call ,he had AdJd.
Scott Fischman was on my table for quite long too, and moneymaker was playing last night too, weird loads of the pros were all playing.
