Hand took place at the Commerce 5/10nl 1500 max. Not too much history with villain except that I know he's loose aggressive. Table has been very loose and almost every hand being raised pre flop. On to the hand...

Hero has $1100, villain has $2200 (he doubled up a few orbits ago).

Hero dealt two Q

UTG. Hero limps, folds, villain raises to $60 in hijack, more folds, hero calls.

Flop is 7 4 2 rainbow. Hero checks, villain bets $100, hero calls.

Turn is J, now hearts draw on board. villain bets $300, hero?

Seriously. I can understand the UTG limp at a very active table, but only if you're going to LRR, especially when the raiser is LAG. And if you're not going to raise, at least go for the flop c/r on that dry board.

As played, shove, there are a decent amount of draws he can have here and quite a few weaker one pair hands that might look you up.

I figured him for a semi strong hand that would not hit hard on the flop. I didn't want to raise pre flop because I knew he would bet out on flop 90% of the time which would give me more value. Given the dry flop, I figure I should smooth call to extract value on the turn.

chekc call turn then bet 1/9th pot on river. If he raises to any amount on river, tank for like 10 minutes thinking about how you are going to drive home with no gas money and then call
