We are ten handed, 1/2 NLHE, five hours into session.

Hero ($1000, CO): Hero has a somewhat TAG image to villains. Hero has played ~200 hours with both villains, but probably looks looser today because he has gotten AA, KK, QQ, and JJ a combined ten times and have only gotten to showdown four of the times.

Villain 1 ($700, MP): Villain 1 is a borderline maniac. He calls 3 bets very wide, calls flops and turns with any pair at all. Hero has 3 bet him twice today and he called OOP both times with 98s and K8s. Hero has also seen him call 3 bets today with KTo and A9s.

Villain 2 ($150, HJ): Villain 2 is LAG and a bad player. She is way more capable of folding than villain 1, but still calls 3 bets extremely wide, and will call off large portions of her stack then fold if she misses the flop. Hero hasn't played any 3 bet pots with her yet, but her calling range is just slightly narrower than villain 1's.


OTTH

Two limpers to villain 1 who makes it $12, villain 2 calls, hero 3 bets to $50 with A K and everyone folds to villains who both call.

Flop ($157): A 8 4. X-x-hero bets $80, villain 1 calls and villain 2 shoves for $20 extra with hero and villain 1 call.

Turn ($457): 5. X-hero bets $250 and villain 1 calls.

River ($957): 2. X-hero?

Are you able to re-open the action when V2 shoves on the flop? If so, I think re-raising is better when V2 shoves.

AP, the BDFD gets there, 76 got there ott, A3 gets there and many A-small two pairs are on board. So c/c. A value bet only targets his AQ/AJs combos that didn't make a flush.

Villain has $300 left so the only sensible bet is putting him all in. Since he didn't move in already himself the chance he has you beat is reduced somewhat. The only question is will he call with worse enough? If he is a passive super loose type who will chase any draw and call with pairs until the river and then give up you only get called by better hands. If he will station off with middle pairs and AX then go ahead and put him in.

We cannot reopen the action. I was thinking about the Ax two pairs, but we also do block A's. 67 is not calling the flop. I agree backdoor flush draw is a legitimate concern.

He's most likely calling with all Ax hands. He's probably not calling with an 8, but probably is with 99-KK, though only 99-JJ are legitimate possibilities as QQ and KK would've 100% 4 bet.
