    tricky spot but I fold here bc hes EP and pretty passive (small sample obv but that's what we're working with). I tend to be nitty though, would like to see what others do here.

    Just fold imo. You're risking 6k to win 1,2k or something and when you get called you're gonna be behind his range

    shove would be awful here, this is a fold vs. most people raising a normal range, let alone a 17/6 who's opening like half as much as most people

    can you mention some raise size with hand you would play like maybe tt+ ak ish.....

    i mean i knew 88 wasn't the nuts here, but it could get a little awkward with a better hand....

    given stats and positions I'd jam AQs, AK, TT, JJ, sigh muck AQo and 99, and 3-bet AA-QQ to 1155 or something. I'd say anything between 1100 and 1300 is reasonable and anything more or less gets a bit worse, but jamming your entire range isn't the worst plan either since he's so tight for raising and probably doesn't like to fold hands he decided to open.

    30 hands lol. I've been running 0/0 for much bigger samples than this :P

    yes it just suggests hes slighty more likely to be playing normal poker....whatever the heck that means....
