Rivered straight, 4 flush board, bizare line by villian.

[JammyDodga]

So I think I played this hand pretty bad, but I really couldn't make any sense of what the villian was doing.

CO just lost his stack when his 6 high flush was beaten by a queen high flush. Since then he was mad tilty, had been betting really bizaare amounts pre, then folding on flop etc, ie raisng with what clearly wasnt strength. So I figured my initail call was +EV just because he was so tilted.

Had some history with UTG, he was playing at like 65/10, and was really lagging it up pre-flop. He generally didnt carry on too much after the flop if he missed, but OOP against him I couldn't really exploit him. I was still up about $60 against him though.

In a previous hand, he'd called a big re-raise on a 2 tone flop, checked the blank turn and then bet out big when the flush draw came home on the river. I folded my AK, and he showed two low unpaired cards.


I just couldn't make any sense of his line, the only possibility I could think of was AK diamonds, but that would be a wierd play pre, and against a guy playing 65% of his hands pre, I thought I couldn't really narrow his hand to exactly 1 hand.


Comments on pre, flop and turn play welcome. What to do on river, do you call or is this a clear fold?

What hands do you put him on?
