V1 is good solid player, thinks out his hands pretty well. Stack =700

I have a kind of aggressive image with raising a good amount pre, made a couple good river calls. Stack=550

Table is loose, lot of limp-calling going on.

I get A

on the button.

5-6 limpers, I make it 20, 4 callers.

Flop(100) 4

Checked to me, I bet 55, only. V1 calls in EP.

Turn(210) T

Check, check. (Curious about opinions here)

River(210) K

V1 bets out 100, I raise to 200 (shoukd have been 250 I think), V1 calls.

$70 on the flop.

Turn check is fine. I prefer a check here.

Definitely raise the river bigger. Min raise makes your hand look stronger anyway. I'm inclined to jam and hope he can't fold his flush.

Raise more pre. Your sizing with that many limpers should be 25-28+. Other than that it looked good. Yes you are correct 250 on the river would have been nice.

Raise more pre. We don't want multi-way here.

Bet more on the flop. You kinda had to know this, at least subconsciously, because you threw that "only" in there.

With these steps, you may be closer to pot-sized bet to get it in otr.

Exactly this. His hand is likely either KJ or a flush or a weak pair turned into a bluff. I'm raising to $30 pre

Raise river more!!!

Line looks good. I agree with others, raise more pre unless $20 raises had been thinning 6 people limped in previously.
