25-50 deep

this hand took place at a livegame at the PCA the other night. i have been playing 25-50nl live for most of the trip and buying in for 5 to 10k and have been winning so far. i originally bought in for 10k but then someone comes to table with 3 racks of black (30k) plus some extra bills. all of a sudden it seems everyone is reaching in their pocket for big chips so i assume this guy is a known donk. i pull out a couple 5k chips and put em in my stack to cover the 30k.

as soon as the game starts 30k guy starts playing almost every hand, mostly limping up front and rarely openraising. one time he did openraise and showed down AK after calling a re-raise pre then flop got checked through. turn he checkraised w. AK high no draw and was called. riv checked through and 99 wins.

another hand he played he limped utg, so did a few others, nitty old man limps button, blinds check

flop is 8 6 3 (two hearts)
BB (tight young player) leads into field of like 5 and is called by "30k man" and old nit on button
turn is a 6 bringing backdoor flush draw and BB leads again for like 400. 30k thinks shortly and raises to like 1400. then nitty old man INSTA-raises to like 3400 straight (obv he's got at least a 6 with a good kick as I havent seem him bluff ever)
bb then folds and 30k man quickly raises to about 6 or 7k total. not much more than a miniraise. old man tanks and says 'i've got u beat now, i know that' and eventually calls
river is K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] bringing backdoor flush draw and 30k man insta-bets 6k. old nit tanks and calls.
30k man insta-mucks and J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] takes down huge pot

so my read on this guy is hes not scared to put his money in on bluffs and probably is willing to calldown light since he seems to hate money.

onto the hand:
young online kid opens to $125 utg
folds to me in MP and I think a while about repopping but decide to just call with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] since utg has only like 5k

folds to BB (30k man) who calls

flop comes J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
both check to me and I quickly throw 3 blacks and 3 greens ($375)
BB calls quickly and UTG folds

(~1000)
J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
BB quickly leads for $800
I eye him down for a little while. He gives me direct eye contact and seems very strong but this could just be a reverse tell as he could very well be bluffing here with air. I figure the Q to be a good scare card as it brings a high card. Mind you we're both 30k+ deep and I decide I want to play a big pot with this maniac on a river [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and that I should build it here and try to win so I raise to $3300 in all blacks. BB insta-calls

(7600)
J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

BB quickly checks to me

I bet one $5000 chip

note about my image: i have been playing very agro preflop trying to isolate limpers and attack blinds in late position and cbetting a bunch of flops but I haven't played any postflop yet so BB probably isn't sure about my bluffing tendencies.
