4th Street at the 40 Game

[Jeffage]

This hand came up in a live 40-80 game. It was folded to me in the cutoff and I opened with the 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] looking at tight players in the blind. The player on the button, who plays many hands and goes too far with them, made it three bets. The blinds folded, I called and we took the flop headsup.

The dealer burned and spread a flop of 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. I checked, my opponent bet and I called. What are your plans for a brick turn card? A random diamond? An offsuit picture card? Assume it would be unlikely for this opponent to lay down something like AK to a turn checkraise, but he MIGHT fold if he was sure he was beat (say, the turn came the A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] and you checkraised, he may fold QQ). I'm just looking for opinions on how people approach this hand against a loose player who won't often be moved off his hand except under certain circumstances (and possibly not even then).

Would anyone prefer bet-three betting or check-raising the flop instead? If so, why?

Thanks,
Jeff
