ok i cash onto a 50c $1 table with $50 wanna get to $100-130 right.
i got it to $90 very close get delt AQ off UTG make it $3.50 guy a few spots down makes it $8 and he been pretty loose, so i may the call.

flop 4 Q 5 rainbow

i bet $10 trying to take it and meet my quota just about

he shoves for $80 and he has done this about 4 or 5 times and got called once by a short stack and he had bottom pair. i tank it for about 30sec im think im good so i call for alot more than i wanted to he show KQ.

Given your read on him, when you think he's pushing with only bottom pair, I'm calling every time in the same spot.

If you fold there then I suggest you quit poker and take up knitting.

easy call.

If you treat your money as spent before you even sit down then you won't bring 'that's a lot of money' into the equation when deciding to call or not.
