Top 2 vs. lagtard.......

I wonder if you have to play the same if the turn is a heart.

If I check the turn , I am always afraid to be betted ( is it a bluff or not ), so I bet again and do not put any more money in ...

Generally bet more on the flop and turn (especially the turn, I can understand if your flop bet is the amount you always c-bet). If he floats a lot I guess you could check the turn but betting is better IMO - you are only behind AA,KK,JJ and 8X and you would expect him to raise PF with the first 3 and if he never folds then why not keep betting.

On the river, it's just whether or not you believe he has and 8 somehow. If he is prone to large bluffs then I guess it's a call. Against some players you could ditch it but when you are going at it with someone it's tough to lay it down when your turn bet looks weak and it almost asking for it.

You just rivered a straight on him and you've been firing at him nonstop AND he's was laggy before that? I instacall and dont think twice about it. If he has an 8, nihannihan.

I'd probably check-call on a heart turn and call non-heart river.

Both your flop and turn bets are too small. This guy calls pot sized bets with FDs, OESDs,...
You got yourself in a situation where you have a really close decision. I`d still call.

i called, villain showed 8-10 unsuited/no heart in sight. WTF? glad to know i was doomed from the start. maybe several more dollars on the flop might of saved me, but i doubt it. you should of seen this guy. i sat there as he spewed a $150 of my money in less than 20 mins, and he never even made it to a single river. good times.

I wish you hadn't posted the results yet, but I'll post this anyway.

When you step back and add everything up (especially the hand as played), he's got an eight.

A LAG that has been getting pounded on and just got rivered is raising this flop with a draw.

I too would have bet more on the flop and turn. But when thinking clearly, I fold to the shove. He's hoping you'll construct a hand that you can beat and using his overall image and recent events to help you do so.

Of course I don't know what happened after this hand, but I think you might have cost yourself even more money by not finding this fold. Having succeeded, odds are he'll now be playing better. Were you to disappoint him, my guess is that he'd be pretty pissed - especially if he gets the impression that you made a good fold. Not only would he then be playing even worse, he'd probably be gunning for you.

Bet more on flop and turn, call river. Also,
