Here is another difficult hand over an evening session.
MP1 V1. 30yo african american guy. ($1200) He has been loose aggressive all evening. Plays lots of marginal hands preflop as limp calls or calling a preflop raiser. Likes to float the flop if only a few players in hand and has successfully folded out lots of other players with turn aggression. He has also check/called flop with two pair or better, winning some big pots in the meantime. Running really well so has been splashy with his chips.
HJ V2 50 y/o asian guy ($140). Tight preflop, but loose post-flop. Plays only good hands, but hates to give up a made hand after the flop
CO Hero - 40 y/o asian guy ($400) Fairly tight preflop, but shows aggression after flop.
1/2NL
Pre-flop
V1 open raises $6, V2 calls from HJ, Hero raises to $25 with JhJc, V1 calls, V2 calls.
Flop ($78)
Qh 9h 5h
V1 checks, V2 checks, Hero checks.
My thinking is that it is a very wet board with an overcard. Not sure if I have the best hand though possible and any Ah or Kh is gonna call or might even reraise. I have showdown value so check it through.
Turn (6s) ($78)
V1 checks, V2 checks, Hero bets out $30
My thinking was that the other 2 players are waving the green flag for me to go so I bet a slightly less than 1/2 pot to charge the flush draws and perhaps cause someone to hesitate putting a pot sized raise in to try to steal pot on river if they sensed complete weakness from everyone.
I was check raised to $80 by V1. HJ fold, Hero calls.
My thinking was that I may be beat or a LAG may be trying to steal the pot. I bet from last position with 2 checks in front of me. An aggressive player with Ah or Kh might do this thinking I might just have overcards or a flush draw myself. If I am behind, I have the 3rd nut flush card just in case, but a bad situation all around.
River ($238)
V1 donk bets $110 into hero. Hero ??
