Villain is quite a calling station to this point. 65/5/1. Goes to showdown 40% of the time. He has laid down a couple of hands to big bets earlier. I put him off the flush draw because he raised the flop, and he has called down with all flush draws to this point. I think I'd still play the flop the same way in retrospect. Do people think this is a mistake? And what do you think of the turn bet? Spew?

Have you seen him minraising with TPTK or less? If so it's fine, otherwhise I call flop and try to keep the pot small (c/c reasonable turn bet, block river).

When a calling station raises you shouldn't be too happy to get your money in with one pair, especially not when you're 200BB deep.

I think if all the money goes in here you are beat. Since its heads up on the flop, I think you should call.

His rnge is probably A5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] , strong Q, 55, 33 and on the turn they all beat you except strong Qs. There may also be some wacky 2 pair hands out there since he is quite loose

You put him on a flush draw yet when it hits you get all your money in? That one confused me.

IMO the turn bet is pure spewage. I'd call the flop raise and see what he does on turn. He seems like a cs right? He doesn't really bet out. What does this mean? Gutshot? Pair? I think this is a goodie. AQ is possibility. I'd like to see a cheap showdown, not get it all in there. Only hand he calls you that you beat is KQ & AQ, or maybe some other crappy Q but most of the time I think he beats your kings.

This looks poor. He has a set or AA a lot IMO.

Eh, Q3os. Teaches me to play a calling station like this. Stupid stupid stupid! And I promptly moved up to 100NL after this... :-D
