Live 5-10
Villain is a degen maniac fish. He's friends with all the best players in the casino, but there is NO WAY he is a pro himself. If I had to guess, he's a trust fund baby. He spews relentlessly and never sits a penny below the max buyin. He and I have played a good amount of hours together and I think he respects my game as much as anyone's (though I'm not sure he respects anyone's game all that much because he never folds pre if he has position). He's only been at the table an hour or so and is up to his usual spew. He got it in with 4

on A

and lost to pfr's AK in a 5-way pre-flop bloater. Then he iso'd the same guy who had AK and called a c/r on the Q

flop. Turn was the 4
and he proceeded to ship in his stack after AK guy checked to him. AK guy folded and villain showed J

, just to show everyone how spewy he really is (like we all didn't already know
).
Hero is normally viewed as capable of everything LAG, but villain only knows me as a good TAG- no need to push if the donkey's pulling, amirite? I 3-bet villain a decent amount in general because he opens so wide. Like clockwork, he pretty much always calls in position and pretty much always folds or 4-bets oop-
come to think of it, for a fish (and this guy's a borderline whale!), he really seems enamored with position for some reason...
The BB is also semi-relevant in this hand. He's a TAG pro who's been running fairly cold lately.
Stacks:
Hero- 2k
BB- 400
Villain- cover
Pre- (15) Folds around to villain on the button who opens for 30, with literally a range of atc. I look down at two red Eiffel Towers and make is 125 in the SB. BB flats (with God knows what) and villain tank/calls- seemed like he wanted to reraise...
Flop- (369) 7

. Hero checks, BB checks, villain bets 280. Hero???
