All villains were pretty loose at my table. Main villain in hand was 75/0.

Absolute Poker $0.10/$0.25 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players
2+2 Hand Converter Powered By DeucesCracked

Hero (SB): $49.75
BB: $17.15
UTG: $20.50
MP: $29.15
CO: $42.20
BTN: $52.35

Pre Flop: Hero is SB with 9

UTG calls $0.25, MP raises to $1, CO calls $1, BTN calls $1, Hero calls $0.90, 1 fold, UTG calls $0.75

Maybe this was a mistake. I was thinking there's lots of money in pot so I'll call in order to flop 2pr or better

Flop: ($5.25) 2

(5 players)
Hero checks, UTG checks, MP bets $1.25, CO calls $1.25, BTN folds, Hero raises to $7.50, UTG folds, MP folds, CO calls $6.25

I flopped 2pr. I'll check/raise to get as much money in as possible. Villains are loose so they'll call me with worse

Turn: ($21.50) 5

(2 players)
Hero bets $15, CO calls $15

Bet for value

River: ($51.50) J

(2 players)
Hero...

Ut oh villain called such a big bet. He seems strong, and I already put so much money in pot. What do i do, did I already make a mistake earlier in the hand? I need to shove now

c/c imho, i cant rly come up with a worse hand that plays like this appart from a draw that missed that he could bet.

fold preflop

fold pre flop.

as played, push river and watch him insta-call and turn over QQ-AA most of the time, IMHO.

i dont think pf is awful, given that utg is probably going to call too, making it a 5 way pot. its meh, but not terrible

as played, yikes. the only thing I disagree with is the "villain shows strength" part. Hes just smooth called you twice. But since we are deep, I think checking the river is best, and if he shoves im probably not folding.

after rereading op and seeing stats shoveshvoshovhosehvose

I go all in. It's not a very big bet at this point (relative to remaining bets) and he might do something goofy like call with JT. He IS calling QQ+ too. I doubt he has 67 or QT. Given how strong your line is he may not shove those QQ+ type hands on the river. When you c/c I think he is betting JJ, maybe AA, and that's about it. His shove would be so small relative to the pot and your line so strong I can't see it being a bluff too often. Then again his stats suggest pretty terrible. But because of that he will also call with worse.

Shove, though I wouldn't be surprised if he had something ridiculous like 2 clubs and folds.

Shove, defiantly +ev given his hand range by this point, you're only behind highly unlikely hands and are gonna stack him if he has an overpair. More importantly though, instafold preflop.
