I think you're going to get a lot of limp pf, but I don't mind this. Flop I would continue as you did. Again on turn. I would check/call the river however. If he calls the river you are surely beat unless he thinks his Ace high is good...I've seen it as much as you have. He'll occasionaly bluff with his draw or his A high here more often I think.

I don't get the "Button ?".

Actually over a huge sample I am making good profit raising here.

Well the river bet is a value/slash blocking bet. This actually happens alot on the river in limit cash and I Kinda have the play from there. The range I had him on the flop after he called was big cards there was no way I could see a pp and have him just call here this was cemented on the turn again when he called. Now the river was a scare card so I bet out knowing I would fold to a raise but I also didnt want to check call becausee if the bet was big enough I would of had to lay down. SO I was willing to call a 300 bet so that is the amount I bet also knowing that I would get called down by AK-Q here a fair amount. Atleast this was my thought process.

You have a huge sample of open-raising 66 in EP'ish spots in lvl I?

I don't know about putting him on overcards unless you play him a lot, if he's not a reg, how do you put him on anything since it's the first hand? if he is a reg, why didn't you give us your read.

Personally, I am slowing down here at some point.

Limp preflop.
Check turn
Check river.

Just because raising his been profitable for you doesn't mean limping isn't more profitable.

I agree with what Pudge says.

Nice result anyway.

I did not have a read on this specific opponent. What do you have him on, that he would flat call flop and turn?

This is baffling to me. How can "cement" a read of overs by 2 flat calls? Overs generally fold the turn, and usually even the flop without a draw. Not everyone is trying to outplay you. If I had to cement a read, it would be a PP.

Not a fan. Limp PF. River bet makes no sense. What is he folding that beats you, and how many hands is he calling that you beat? 55 and 44, that's about it.
