Default I have a HUGE hand... how did it get played?

Villian is a real maniac. plays 83% of hands while only raising 18%. will stack off with anyold thang. just stacked off with TP weak kicker v set. the flop is amazing for me. the turn is very good. the river i figger i MUST push for value since he'll call with a lot of stuff. even a busted draw i think. what do you guys think about the way this was played?

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.05/$0.10

Converter

Raise it to atleast 0.4$ preflop. Flop is standard. I would prolly raise a bit more on the the turn and just call on the river. I don't see him going over the top with a hand you beat with a ten kicker.

With that read, this is standard.

Might consider folding PF in UTG vs. a SLAG. How many times are you going to hit the A or FD? And your T will be useless.

I also wouldn't be semi-slow playing the turn. You've got a ton of outs if he's got another paired card. On the river, he doesn't have the straight (T7) so if he beats you its with A9 or something. I probably make the call and bust out too.

In my experience you stack every Ax (x lower than 10) or any 10x against these players.

You say he has probably A9, so how can raising with A10s be bad if Ax is his range?

I wouldn't consider 83% VPIP SLAG. ATs is a raise all day UTG 5 handed.

Bet more on the turn, makes the river easier to get it all-in and you want that vs. this guy.

[/ QUOTE ]S meaning super. Not semi.

To VPIP:
I know what you're saying. I just don't like leading off with this knowing that I'm going to eventually be AI IF (and that's a big if) an A hits on the flop. If he's playing Ax he could have paired the x and you're busted out. The FD possibilities help but how many times are you going to get a FD? And the T is useless if an A doesn't hit. I know with these guys the variance is huge but I like to swing it a bit in my favor and lessen the neg impacts by playing stuff like this later. Thoughts?
