25NL 9Max: Steal attempt become big pot.

[Jay.Yang]

No stats on SB. He is a bit loose-passive I think.
Comment on all street please. Especially on Turn, should I fire again here?

I think checking the turn here is ideal against someone you think might be loose-passive.

AXo is still on the frontier to me. I tend to fold it here, or make a 3x raise and plan to take down the flop (delayed steal). Given the blinds are so small compared to the stacks I do not like straight blind stealing. And while I certainly raise lighter here, I do not respect A9o and lower. So either the risk to reward of this PF move is too high, or I am missing some EV opportunities at 25NL.

As played I would instinctively fire again on the turn because I have outs, SB has shown little strength, may call with the other end of the SD and A-high might be best. But I got to thinking it would be a shame to be bet off this hand with so many outs and fairly disguised, and SB could easily get aggressive thinking you overs missed, so now I like taking the free card. Love the river.

Looks fine to me...
