its my first time posting in LLSL

its a weekly Expat home game,
all the players there are recreational,
the people there who are there have business and factories in china & indian
lets say the winnings and losing average can be 8-10k
the game is deep when around midnight,


V1:
he's a big time gambler and one of the biggest fish in the game,
in 15 months he have lost about 4.5Million chinese yuan ( 680KUSD) playing the other big game which is hush hush and only invited players.
he will play ATC which he feels is right...

V2:
tight passive and is very pissed about V1,
they have some history about each other and everyone in the game is aiming for V1.
very sticky on flop and fold out mediocre hands on river with large river bet,

Hero: tight passive.
im consider one of the tightest player to them,
and they always said im the unluckiest player ever........

10players
sb/bb is 10/20, raises about 150-200

otth

stake sizes might be a little off, but should around there.
Hero (sb) 2700
V1 (BB) 8000
V2 (UTG) 12000

PF
UTG limps 20
all folds to Hero who have AJ limps 20
BB raises to 200 and 2 of us call,

FLOP ( 600 )
J210
Hero checks, V1 bets 500, V2 calls, Hero calls,

Turn (2100)
2
Hero shove it in for 2000
V1 calls, V2 folds,

River K

PF: i was thinking of reraising to 700 and get heads up,
but V1 is calling station PF,
NO Matter what he wants to see the flop,

Pls kindly advise all Streets.
Also we are able to seat change anytime we wish too !

Seriously how to have a gameplan with V1 who is aggressive and maniac playing ATC

Spoiler:
V1 gets there on the river
V1 hand is K 6

I mean, he was getting 2:1 on a 3:1 draw and sucked out. What are you gonna do? Is this game too big for you? If you're not willing to put money in with an edge you shouldn't be in the game.

Raise pf. You want to isolate yourself with the whale as much as possible. Letting someone else stay in pf was a mistake. Since the pot was 3 way, the shove on the turn is spew. You just got lucky V2 didn't have a real hand and called.

Otherwise, that's poker. Some draws are going to come in. You want people calling in hopes of them doing so.

You need to raise this hand preflop. Worst hands will call you.
