I'm not a business maaan

I'm a business, man
so let me handle my business, daaaamn

15/30 Bellagio game

CO has been raising almost every orbit, and has shown that he's raising light. LAG city for sure, but I've yet to see him get massively out of line post flop. All fold to him, he pops it.

I look down at two black 6's in the sb and decide I want to play the hand alone against him. I've folded a ton of blinds to him, not this one. I raise, BB folds (super nit), and flop is

K56 rainbow

I check raise the flop, he goes 3. I call with the intention of banging on his head on the big streets

turn:

K56K, and the second king puts a red flush draw out. I check raise him again, he goes 3, I go 4, he calls. Nice I'm going to win this.

river

K56K2, no flush

I bet, raise, I 3, he 4's...

Does this have to be KK if he goes 6 ? Anyone not put one last raise in on the river ?

[KitCloudkicker]

i think i just call the 4.

im not worried about KK, but him stealing the blinds with K6 etc.

[rafiki]

Ya I guess the very bottom of his range could be K5s. I wasn't thinking of that. I hadn't seem him raise that light, but you're right it's got to be an option.

Once the flush doesn't come, the river blanks off, villain has watched you be ridiculuous on the flop and turn, and done some stop-and-go stuff on the turn/river, 8 bets is too much on the big streets. Call the 4-bet. It's closer to calling the raise than it is 5-betting.

Just lead the flop.

"just lead the flop"

see I cr air there as much as I check raise top pair or better. That was a pretty consistent play for me, and was getting me extra bets all night when heads up.

[ProfessorBen]

It's a blind steal situation. You don't need any more deception and he is likely to raise just as often as he bets if he has any piece of the hand, esp. with that read. Additionally, it allows you to 3-bet and also doesn't shut villain down into showdown-bound mode when he has a marginal holding. Lastly, flop getting checked through here is terrible.

Bet the flop.

Going 5 here looks like pure spew to me. Anytime you get 4 bets in on the turn, check raised both flop and turn, and the villain still wants to get 4 bets in on the river, your 5th nuts don't look too good. A laggy CO will raise almost any K suited if folded to him, especially if he has been raising light all session, as you claim.

So what were the results. Were you drawing slim on the flop, get outdrawn on the turn, or you had the best hand the whole way and he overplayed it massively (I can only see 55 here, how he goes 4 bets on turn and river with a naked king is spewage).
