I would make it 600 ish pre , considering the MP2 is still in the hand and you are OOP.

OTF I fire something like 425 to keep the pot in control and avoid to play in the dark by checking it.

+1 and would be happy to shot the second barrel on A,,Q turns. I would give up on other turns.

Hi all,

I like 600 preflop too.

As for giving up... what do you mean by giving up? Bet 350-400 on the flop and check every non-Q turn card (bet on Q turn card). Check/call those turn cards and expect river to go check/check very often and us to show down the winning hand..

What range do you give him? What hands do you think he will bet turn and check river?

Hard to define exactly but a decent chunk of pure airball, lots of Tx hands (he's a fish), gutshots, flushdraws etc. If he decides to then shove the river with them, unlucky for us.

I don`t think his range is very wide, because the fishes are more likely to call pre flop with marginal hands instead of iso raising. So he don`t have a lot Tx in his range.

I tend to disagree here. For every fish that decides to limp behind Tx, you have 2 fish that iso-raise some more random hands. Here I don't mind limping behind low pairs in his spot, whereas I don't think any fish will do it (nor is it specifically better than raising).

Hi all,

Sounds bad with 64bb. I like it maybe with 300bb if you think their range is too wide (maybe with QQ+ instead of JJ+ AK though). With 64bb we can stack an even wider range by just playing poker postflop IMO.
