Villains chip stack has fluctuated wildly. Seen him trap a couple of times but also check raise with nada.

I had been plodding along with a standard TAG game.

I'm a micro stakes learner.

Looks great to me.
You acquired reads and used them for your benefit. Even if he traps, the times you win are going to outweigh the times you lose here.

The odds are in your favor - I agree with knightofNarg

Would I call here? It's all about risk vs. reward in these games. You definitely don't need to, but if you have a read than I don't think it's bad or spewy at all.

It's good to take notes on what hands/situation you see him do this in, because you could go much wider here like pocket 66s+ and some king/queen hands, maybe like K9/QJ+.

Looks fine to me. I'd call.

would call here. You're ahead of a lot more than your behind. Depends on any history you have with that specific player though or how he's been playing on the table at the time




Bankroll Zero

I would call.
