$2/3 at the Bike in LA.
I've been at the table with Villain for about 3 hours. He's very loose passive preflop, playing at least 60% of hands. I've seen him call at least two huge overbets with naked flush draws, not to mention calling with gutshots galore even when the odds aren't even close to right. He's been getting lucky and pissing other players off ("how can you call that?!" "I had to go allin, it's the only way to make you fold!" etc). Dude loves chasin' dem draws.
My image is fairly standard TAG if anyone is playing attention.
Villain is UTG ($300)
Hero is MP ($300)
Villian straddles to $6
Folds to Hero who makes it $18 w/JJ.
One call in LP and Villain calls.
Flop ($54) - 9
8
5
Villain checks, Hero bets $40, LP folds.
Villain thinks for a bit and then shows his cards to the player next to him. The guy looks down and says to villain, "I don't know, it's up to you."
This makes me think draws or weak pairs are basically the entirety of Villain's range. He calls.
Turn ($134) - 7
Villain bets $35.
He could certainly have me beat with a straight or two pair, but a bluff is also somewhat likely. That, combined with the fact that I can hit a T for the 2nd nuts, sways me to call. I mean, I'm getting almost 5 to 1 here.
River ($204) - 7
Villain checks fairly quickly. Hero?
All comments on any street/thinking is appreciated.
