Yeah I disagree Surf, the player as described is fully capable of capping a double gutter there. The only way I'd discount J9 combos is if he might not raise J9o preflop.

he might 6 bet d gutters if given the chance.

I was just going by the description you gave - "opponent is a LAG. not a maniac, but an idiot nonetheless. kind of guy that gives way too much action but can also be a pain in the ass because he value bets like everything and will c/r bluff on turns etc..."

This conjured to mind a 40/20 type player who is tough to play against but is exploitable because he cont-bets too much and shows down too much, and my go too many bets with semi-strong+ made hands.

A guy who raise-caps J9o on this flop is a full-on maniac (or horrendous hand reader) neither of which were implied in the original description? If you think he'll raise-cap any J9 here on the flop then i think your turn cap is probably a little much, no?

The problem is so many of these aggressive players fall in love with whatever draw they're on and either try as hard as they can for a free card or think they're getting value out of their cap. Perhaps you could liken it to the people who 3-bet bad flops with their UI overs? I've seen countless 2+2ers make that play, and this guy doesn't even sound close to that level.

I do agree that the turn cap may prove to be excessive if we give him a hand range for things that he 3-bets the turn with.
