hmm tough decision...

Between a snapcall and fistpump call. He's playing such a wide range, he's a donk halfstack, and you have top 2 pair facing an under pot sized bet. If he has a set it's a cooler. He has lower 2 pair, AK (remember he hardly ever raises preflop), flush draw, 23, 2T, 3T, other random shit enough that your AT is almost always good. Add onto that the fact that you only need to have the best hand like 30% here for the call to be profitable and you can never ever fold here.

Yeah guess the pot odds make it an easy call, just thought that there was a pretty good chance he had a set. I had played a few hands against him already and he mainly Check/called or folded all the way down.

Oh yeah and there was a hand where he flopped trips and check called me all the way down

Easy call no question. Two pair is almost always good at these lower level games even more so on that board.

agreed, I don't think I could ever fold this, even without the passive "read"

I dont rate him as passive when he is seeing that many hands, I rate him as donk

Passive means that calls and check more than he bets and raises. it has nothing to do with how many hands he sees.

For the records, Snap call fist pump. I expect to stack any Ace here.

Why check the Turn after hitting your top two pair if not to induce a bet exactly like this one? Pretty easy call, I think.
