V is young WG, late 20s or early 30s. Classify him as a recfish in that he's loose enough to play most big card combos (9+) or SCs regardless of position, but not ATC. Takes aggression in spots that don't really make sense to do so in. He's been short stacking most of the night and has made some weird plays. We've had two significant hands head to head -
(HH1) V raised to $10 in MP, Hero defended BB with 5c6c. On a flop of J34r, V bet $10 again, Hero c/r to $40, V shipped for $96 total, and he showed TT which held.
(HH2) V opened in MP to $12, one caller in between, Hero called on button with A2dd. Flop was 999, checked through, turn was a 5, V open shipped for ~$100, and when all folded he showed KQo.
Hero is early 30s reg WG, but very few of players at the table have history with me. Likely seen as LAG, as I've been very active raising with semi-bluffs or floating on boards favorable to my range, but the runouts haven't been kind. Might have a losing image as a result.

Effective stacks: ~$255
Hero straddles on BTN to $6. (Rest of the table was much deeper than V, and passive). SB folds, V in BB calls. One EP limper, two LP limpers. Hero looks at Q
J
and raises to $31 to isolate and pick up some dead money, as the table was full of limp/folders. Only V calls.

V checks, Hero bets $35. V calls. I probably should've bet slightly more here, but I must've miscounted pot size in my head. $45 seems better.
Turn ($146) A
V checks, Hero bets $75. V tanks and ships for ~$190 total. Hero calls.
