Turning Stone 5/10 No Max: Hooks

[GTL]

Hand was played at T Stone against a villain that I had a few reads on. The game is 5-10 blinds with no max and a minimum bring in of 20 dollars.

The reads: Villain is fairly ABC. I have seen him play big pots with one pair. Also, he has been talking about his hands, and on several occasions he has check called (when oop) and flat called with flush draws, flush and straight draws, and gut shot straight draws. I have yet to see him make a semi bluff on the flop with a draw. For the most part he raises on the flop with top pair, calls flop with a draw and then folds turn if he misses his draw.

He is an older guy (think doctor or lawyer with money to spare but still playing the game seriously even though hes not too good). Villain has been chatting with me as a buddy of mine who is quite good was in the game with him earlier. I believe that he thinks I'm a good player and he knows that I'm not afraid to move my chips. I have played 2 pots with him HU each one getting HU by the turn. Each one ended with me betting and him laying down on the turn after calling a flop bet.

The hand: Villain has approx 2500 in front of him, Hero covers.

Hero is dealt J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] UTG and brings it in for 20, 2 calls, Villain calls in the CO, Button calls, BB calls.

(120) Flop: 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

Hero bets 100, 2 folds, Villain makes it 300 to go, folded to Hero who calls.

(720) Turn: 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Hero bets 500, Villain makes it 2100 and is all in, Hero?

My reads on the betting. I was nearly 99 percent sure that villain did not raise the flop with a flush draw. My read on him not semi bluffing was strong. I hadn't seen him show down any suited connectors but it was certainly possible that he had 2 pair or a set. I was also fairly sure that he didn't have deuces as he was playing fairly tight preflop with 1 exception, he was coming in cheap with a lot of aces suited or unsuited. On the flop I put him on a pair of 8s or possibly a pair of sevens, with hands like A8 or A7, two pair, a set, and possibly a bluff with air even though that was highly unlikely.

My read on his turn raise was that he wanted to look strong. I was 99% sure that he did not have a flush. I was having trouble trying to figure out exactly why he wanted to look strong but it certainly felt like he wanted to take it down right there. I think with 2 pair he might very well have wanted to take it down but I had seen him play one set and he made smaller raises and got payed. When he pushed all in he counted his chips and then said "I guess I'm all in." I read it for a reverse tell. I felt like he was acting weak to make me think he was strong.

The turn was a huge card for me, and I felt like if I put him on two pair I was getting the right odds to call. It was also possible he was on air but very unlikely.

Comments on all streets are appreciated. I'll post the results in a few days.
