Hero: been at the table for two orbits this is the first hand ive played.

Villain: man in his 50s/60s seems to be a bit of a lagtard. He is playing literally every hand. either limp-calling from any position or opening with bets from anywhere between $15-$65.

Hand:

V (1000+) limps in EP. button limps.

Hero (500) is dealt A Q. Hero Raises to $30. V calls. Button folds.

Flop (65) A: T T Hero bets $35. Villain raises to $115. Hero quickly calls.

Turn (300) 8 Hero checks. V bets $225. Hero has $350ish behind.

Hero?

He's playing every hand pre-flop, got it.

Any reads /experience with him post-flop?

i would probably puke fold here

also i may even take a c/c line the whole way here being OOP vs descobed villain, to let him bluff off his stack to our underreped hand

i would c/c c/c c/c or c/c and lead river if checked back

You need to use your reads to figure this one out, you were at the table so we dont have any of his tendency info except that hes 'lagtard'

In a vacuum i fold. If the 8 was offsuit i might consider getting the rest in.

With the Qc, I think you can check this flop some percentage of the time.

Don't "call quickly". Would you do that with AA, AT?

I agree with checking the flop being a consideration for sure. It was my first thought. Facing a tighter pre-flop range, I think checking might be superior quite often. The possible flush and gut shot draws don't make this a pure WA/WB spot, but it's close. We're crushing all other Ax (ignoring AK) and pairs and aren't likely to get outdrawn on - way ahead. If villain has a T, we're losing and are not likely at all to catch up - way behind.

However, against such a wild villain, who plays "every hand" I think there are plenty of Ax hands that give us value. So I'm a little more inclined to bet the flop. I think you should bet/decide the flop like you did. I do also think check/call is an option if he's playing 100% of hands and betting the flop if checked to - that would be good, too.

As played, good luck. Fold to flop raise unless villain is still wide here - in that case, call with the plan to never ever fold. So check/call or just check/shove turn as played given stacks.
