Default Re: $4/$8 at Foxwoods, KQs against tilting villain

[ QUOTE ]
<font color="blue">I went for the check-raise.</font>

Villain in this hand has taken a couple of bad beats and is obviously tilting badly. He's spewing chips doing things like 3-betting an EP open raise with 97o. Anyway, he clearly does not like me, partly because I keep chatting with another 2+2er who is at my table, and seems to want to "get revenge" on the game.

I'm UTG+1 with KQ and I raise.

Folds around to villain who 3-bets from the CO. Folded back to me, and I call.

Flop:

I check, he bets, I raise, he goes to 3-town, what's your play?

I call and bet a non-ace turn. If he raises, then I think you can just call down. 3 BB on the turn and river is probably about right given the action, and I don't think you want the turn to get checked through.

I think generally even when people are tilting, they'll back off if they have nothing at all in the face of heavy action. Not that they'll fold, but they'll go into call down mode. So I think bet-3-betting in this case would be a mistake on that board, as it's somewhat dry (depending on the turn card).
