Open ended vs aggro
 

Read on villain is that he is very aggressive. He c-bets almost 100% of the time as the pre flop raiser. I definitely think he is capable of floating with a wide range. He opens a wide range as well pre flop. Note: one of the players are sitting out so this is effectively 4 handed.

you took your shot on the turn and you don't have enough for a workable bluff....c/f

Who likes the c/r on the turn vs this type of villain?

I think it makes sense with your read and your outs. Worth a shot from time to time.

I dont like the look of this board, there are so many hands he will want to call the check raise with, with a made hand he may put you on a draw and call, with one of the many draws he will call in position getting 3-1

Re: Open ended vs aggro
 

I dont really like the c/r on the turn - the bet is not big enough to scare him off and you will be facing this river situation more often than not.

If you want to make a move on the turn c/rai or much more than you did, your folding equity will have increased allot and your actully equity will remain the same. So you EV will increase.

I think I lead the turn instead - if he shoves it is an easy fold. If he calls and we hit we are more likley to be paid off IMO, If he calls and we miss we have anoter "to bluff or not to bluff?" river situation but this one is CHEAPER! If he folds then that is good for us.

Also raise to 4xbb pre flop.

Re: Open ended vs aggro
 

I think a river bluff push would be sexy...So many non paird drawing hands he could be calling flop and turn with. At these stakes people will chase till the river for almost any amount IMO.

Re: Open ended vs aggro
 

I prefer betting the turn. c/r turn is okay, just sortve awkward given stack sizes. i would probably c/f the river, i doubt he folds a Q.

I understand wanting to mix it up a little bit, but its really unecessary at this level
