400NL - Sickest hand I\'ve played in a while
 

Villain here is wizalex, running 36/23 over enough hands. He's pretty bad, but competent. Earlier we played this hand:

On to the hand:

BTN: $219.30
SB: $1,333
Hero (BB): $643
UTG: $134
CO: $524.10

Pre-Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BB)
UTG folds, <font color="red">CO raises to $16</font>, 2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $54</font>, CO calls $38

Flop: ($110) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, CO checks

Probably should've bet the flop here, but he was quite resilient and his fold to cbet % was below 50.

Turn: ($110) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $65</font>, CO calls $65

Valuetowning obv.

River: ($240) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $100</font>, <font color="red">CO raises to $405.10 and is All-In</font>, Hero calls $305.10

I tanked and my timer ran down about 5 seconds after I pressed TIME. I couldn't decide what was the best action here. I ended up making the blocker because of how heroic he was in the first hand. I really didn't expect him to shove. It took him about 6-8 seconds fwiw.

Thoughts?

where is his aggression at.. ? have u ever seen him 4b this? I don tlike that the flush got there too much. TBH I dont see this as a bluff too often at this game, not saying it cant happen but if u were a l ittler more shallow id snap this. Calling is def thin, I think i give this one up

He was bein a hero in hand 1, doesn't mean he's a total idiot. That call was terrible, but he seemed competent.

Re: 400NL - Sickest hand I\'ve played in a while
 

your play in hand 2 is worse than his play in hand 1 imho. There doesn't need to be must explanation to this because you beat nothing but air. If he is extremely aggro, I can see a case for calling.

Yeah I don't think this spot is sick at all. Even with AK its pretty close, probably a fold.

Re: 400NL - Sickest hand I\'ve played in a while
 

You migh as well have 66 here, you beat the same hands in his range

Re: 400NL - Sickest hand I\'ve played in a while
 

The line I took is sick imo. FWIW I don't think I played this hand well at all.

Just looking for some feedback.

I wouldn't make this bet size against this nutjob without a plan.
