I raise the flop like always, and check behind the river.

Pre is loose but fine, flop and turn are fine given his bet sizing. River is inexplicable, what are you thinking?

What hand calls you on the river? K10?

Villain can be trying to draw very cheaply.

This is 90% of the time a weakish draw or pair on the flop against unknown donks. I value raise the flop because I get a insane amount of folds and hate guessing on the turn/river if my hand is good when a scare card comes.

I raise these weak ass bets against most villains with any draw/any pair/and against some any two cards...



If villain is taggish I never reraise there leads unless I have a very good hand, you'll get b/3b way to often.

I dont like preflop, unles the button is really nitty. On the button this is fine (but really depends onthe blinds though). Raise flop, lots of draws/worse hands that are donking this flop weak and a will call a raise. As played check behind on river
