I was playing 1cent/2cent NL Holdem last night and immediately identified a LAG at the table who was relatively deep stacked. LAG is actually an understandment this guy was a manic. He would reraise most of the preflop raises under 10 cents to 10 cents or higher, bet pot on most flops, reraised most post flop bets etc. He bluffed a guy for half his stack with air and showed it. I have been getting bullied by this guy for the past hour and I lost around 40 cents to him without a showdown.
After an hour I am pretty short stacked (35 BB). I pick up Ah8h in position and call the villains 5 cent preflop raise with position.
The board comes Ks3d8c
Villain bets pot as expected the pot now becomes roughly half my current stack.
I decide to reraise shove all in with the second highest pair on the board.
My thought process being that I am going to go all the way to showdown with this hand. I think there is a slight chance he will fold with worse which wins me the pot right there and then and a huge chance he will call me with worse which is also A okay in my book.
Villain showsdown Kx5y
Is my thought process ok here? I am a new player and would love a second opinion on this. Even if your opinions are brutally honest, let em rip, Im here to learn.
