Villain is very loose and erratic. I've seen him three barrel with air and float flop-raise turn or river with air. He's called me down very light a couple times and seems pretty showdown heavy in general. Preflop he's probably 3-betting 35% of the time or so.

5 handed 30 game. New player is posting between button and SB.

I open QsTc from co, Villain 3-bets from button, 3 folds, I call.

Flop: As Qd 6d
I c/r, he calls

Turn: Jc
Bet, Call

River: Jh
Check...

--- Is the flop c/r good? I have a small equity edge but being oop might negate that.

--- Pretty sure, as played, I should have bet river.

if you've seen him 3barrel with air and he seems very aggro then i think c/c c/c and evaluate on river can't be a bad line

I like the check if you are gonna call. I hate the check if you are going to fold.

Betting the river and getting raised would suck.
Betting the river and folding out a better hand doesn't seem like its gonna happen against the opponent.
Betting the river for value seems a little thin.

As played I think an underpair is going to be there much more often than an A or a J. It seems to me that a value bet on the river will be fine vs this guy. Vs me you will lose every time.

yes you should have bet the river

now you have to call the river like a donk and maybe lose to his A2 or you win vs his 99

In practice I check these rivers and feel bad about it afterwards, too.

I'm kind of bleh on the flop c/r

And I kind of think you can c/f the river in most cases, but probably not vs this villain.

against this guy i dislike the flop play unless you are doing it specifically to induce a turn bluff from him. overall i think you're better off just letting him barrel.

I dont like the flop c/r as he throws away his bad hands and calls with his good. Id rather let him take the lead and have his ******ed aggression take over where he leads everything. So id prolly just c/c down the whole way with this hand.
