1/2 AJo vs loose player

[LittleWing]

He seems to be loose aggressive. I'm not sure to what extent. When do I fight back if ever?

your line is great. if he's bad raise the river. if he's really really bad raise the turn -- by really really bad I mean when he 3bets the turn you are a favorite.

I'm just starting to read and post again, so I'm a little rusty. On the flop, you're only really behind AA, QQ, JJ, AK, AQ (I doubt he's 3-betting anything with a 4). If he is a LAG, his three bet range is probably pretty wide (Just about any broadway suited--and some not suited--and any pocket pair through 7's). I call the flop and raise the turn. If I get re-raised, I call down and shoot myself when I see A3. But I suck.

Ensuring that one bet goes in on every street is the goal here. That said, I would consider raising the river if he is very liberal with his preflop three bets.
