"Cons:
--Prone to tilt which causes him to bluff too much and won't fold pairs"

" I've mostly been getting the better of him by showing down the goods when value betting or calling his bluffs. "

"Flop 2d2s5h ($70 pot)"

I don't think this is the right time for a bluff.

That he'd check the riv like 80% of the time, and I could just shove and win.

i do this sometimes, but there's obv a time and a place for it and u have to know ur opponent very well(which it seems u do). anyway, i think i'd rather just fold the turn in this instance because of his flop act thing. did you really think he would make that act AND bet super small on the turn with a bluff? i should mention i don't think it's as horrible as everyone else but still don't like it for the reasons i mentioned.

i would probably just call his flop checkraise with a lot of my range here, often so i can leave myself more opportunities to win the pot on a later street.

float float push ftw - yeah, i don't know - his river bet seems bad to me, unless it's a bluff with the best hand knowing that you have no FE vs his hand with a raise, and thus you wouldn't push hands that marginally beat his, and might even fold hands that beat his. It's a tricky bet - as is his turn bet. How thin do you think he value bets you here?

Everytime I play a hand like this (calling the turn here), to bluff the river, it never works and I fele stupid afterwards. That said, shove or fold turn.

river bet looks like a fake blocker to induce a shove

The act he put on on the flop made me pretty confident that he had a weak hand, because he was selling a big hand too hard.
