Didn't note effective stacks, but I think ~$750

V is a grandma that looks like a skinny surf-bum dude. Her pf game is maybe 25/0 vpip/pfr. I'd seen her call a 2bet OTF with a set, then call leads on turn and river, never shoving OTR. She also limped pre once w/88. Her stack was ~$250 at that point. One of the blinds raised to $125 whose range should have been mostly monsters. She then went AI.

3 limpers including V. Hero BTN $35 w/ AKo, 3 callers.

Flop $140

AQJ rainbow.

x,x, V $30, Hero $120, f, f, V calls

Turn $380

8, opens FD we do not block.

V leads $200, Hero?

Flop and turn critique appreciated.

Has she really not raised pre yet? How long have you guys been playing?

If she really never opens pre then I think we should flat flop. She's passive and has every nutted combo in her range. AK is really a bluffcatcher at that point. As played o fold turn for the same reason. A passive grandma is betting big and we have TPTK

Agreed. As played turn is a fold. Calling flop and folding to a reasonable turn bet from grandma seems fine.

Don't like the flop raise. Definitely folding turn. With description, I don't know how you could ever be ahead here.
