[One Outer]

Villain in this hand is BB. I've played with him many times; he's a regular. He's definitely a TAG but he gets out of line postflop sometimes. I've seen him make weird semibluff turn raises against LP's from time to time. Sometimes he'll make too narrow a read and as a result overplay a hand. CO is horrible. Playing somewhere between 40-50% of his hands. Generally a postflop calling station.

I'm putting villain on any PP, including slowplayed big pairs, As9ss, 9xs, or a flush draw with two overs (though with this villain I think the chances are pretty remote) with the range being heavily weighted toward a pocket pair. He could (and I think likely would) play any pocket pair this way on the flop against an aggressive opponent like me. I have also seen him get cute with JJ-AA from the blinds like this before, so that's in my head too.

I suspect that some might question my turn raise because villain's line looks so strong. In my experience, lots of bad players will lay down non-nut flush draws and straight draws for two cold on the turn even if they are being laid odds. It worked, tee hee hee.

Villain checks, Hero bets...

I think this is a clear bet/call. He's creative enough to try and bluff raise this card, knowing it won't look like a bluff at all and that I hate it. I also think he'll call with any pair.
