Hitting top pair on the turn

[Scipio]

Villain semiloose aggressive, no regular but perhaps not so bad.
What changes if villain is a straightforward thinking TAG?
I would bet a trashhand here 100% of the time.

not terrible, I try to felt (B/B/B) at times because your hand makes no sense.

If you bet your trash 100% here. How can you then check such a strong hand as KQ? Thats not very good balancing [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Yes, no balancing so you mean i should bet here? Or should i only bet against regulars?

Well, either you start to valuebet a bigger range(including this type of hands) or else you really need to cut down on your doublebarrels on these turncards. If you play against non-regular weaktight players you obv dont need to think about a balanced strategy but its good to keep in mind when you play good opponents.
