Villain is your standard loose preflop/aggressive postflop player, running like 39/5/3. I had been somewhat aggressive at this table running at 15/10/4. Due to the stack sizes here I decided to try something different and rep. KK/QQ. Once I c/r I'm repping a set or KQ which sucks since that's actually what I have. I'm very unsure of my line here...

put your money into the pot, you beat a lot of hands here.

I like it against aggressive players. I wish they would bet more than 40% of pot though :P

Raise a little less, like $25 maybe. You want him to call.

Size of your C/R seems a bit high, you fold out too many hands you want calling.

I raised so much to take away implied odds from a flush draw/straight draw. If I raise to $25 he's going to get those odds. Bad thinking?

edit: the math: If I raise to $25 he's calling $17 to win 90.15 which gives him 5.30:1
