Villain is very aggro, bluffy, loose, likes to "outplay" and bully people with big bets. This turn donk is probably a feeler, maybe with a monster, maybe with air, he's trying to see if I will raise or just call.

So, raise or call? (why?) Do I need to hit my draw? What to do on the river if I don't hit?

in position, against this opponent, i like calling the turn. if he hit, he might bluff into you thinking a 4 or a 9 is a scare card for ya. plus your top pair has a lot of value in this spot. raising will put you too many difficult decisions imo.

i dont think you need to hit your draw. if you dont, and he bets again, im probably calling most river bets.

[orange]

i usually call/call.

[FishSticks]

I'd just call here, but I would not be surprised at all if this meatball shows up with a 4 here. On the river it depends on your reads - given the read you gave I guess I call the river again, against some villains I will fold river unimproved.

Yeah the whole problem is having no idea if he has a 4 or not. He totally could have it, or he could have a lot of other thing, such as naked clubs.

[a breath of air]

If you describe villain as "bluffy" I think this is a call, but it is close IMO.

[Casper05]

Hero folds

i don't like these type of draws, they are one of the weakest combo draws out there. i would probably call turn rather than raise.

the river is really tough, he probably has a 4 or air, or he sucked out with a J
