Turn ($18.75) 4 2 K 4 (2 Players)

River ($18.75) 4 2 K 4 8 (2 Players)

He is 42/9/AF1.0/3bet0.0  44 hands 

His river AF was 0.0 at the time of this hand. I often see this type of player limp reraise Huge or AI with +QQ. So, I learned one thing, that is, he did not LR preflop, the rest is a blur on FD/SD board texture and my range here is a pure bluff catcher.

I often isolate limpers with SC/+JT/Axs/Kxs but I dislike doing it with Axo no kicker so it took a while to decide to do it. So, I'm also wondering what people think about that one. I guess the worst is A6o.  

What do you think?

what exactly is the question? i dont think that herocalling is agood idea....obv a 42% might include a lot more draws than a reggish range but he also will call lot of SC´s (including 8x and 4x) and small PP´s and bad KX that all got you beat. And therefore we checked turn we rep nothing but 88 by raising...his sizing also looks also like value or blocking bet

btw...imo isoraise is a little too thin, vbut might depend on players behind

SB is a nit with 3% 3bet 250 hands and BB is a LAG with 50% Squeeze 16% 3bet only 50 hands. lol Not that I was paying attention... but I can see that I should.

Its not ideal but your still gonna have position and can vbet him/bluff him better, he plays such a wide range that cbetting will be verry +EV.
Rvr is kinda close, you need to be good 25% of the time, youll sometimes have 8x here ofc you can call with.
Think its close might look him up some of the time w 2x here but prob a little thin, depends a bit on his timing for c/c flop you might be able to read something out of that.

Yeah, close because he seems passive but he could still be in a must bet to win situation looking at the board texture so I did end up tanking and calling.

I'd fold because he's been so passive, but it's close.
His flop c/c range contains Ahighs that he somehow limp-called, Kx, FDs gutshots.
Ahigh probably checks down (although a fish might bet for no reason), the missed draws bet, and Kx bets. Against that range, we beat a lot of hands, and we get over 2:1.

I agree with the fold. It seems so right to fold in theory against a passive player.

I got frisky and ended up calling here but most of the time, it is a losing call.

It's usually a very easy fold vs any passive fish since I would be holding something like A/K/Q high or some worthless hand with no SDV.

I call here, I also play 100nl zoom and find that weak players will alway bet their bluffs on the river and will check call with weak Kx and medium pairs so when he bets he is way more weighted towards bluffs as he is betting all hands with no showdown and not value betting enough. 

I personally would iso here with any A on the button vs CO as I'm way less likely to be limp raised and will definitely have position.

Also, vs these weak players you can save money by c betting smaller on flops. I would bet $3.50/$4 as standard as when he misses he is just folding, but when I hit I will  c bet bigger, obvs this is exploitable vs good players but vs these weak fish I think it somethign we should be doing.
