50NL - Top set on 3flush board v. LAG, river play?

[toddxlogan]

Hi All-

Thought this was a semi-interesting hand I played tonight. I'll post more later after some opinions get tossed around. 50NL on stars. Villain is lagggy... running 45/4/4. Basically doesn't raise preflop but goes pretty lagtard postflop, over only about 50 hands. Haven't seen him get to too many showdowns though. FWIW over these 50 hands he is calling 30 percent of PFR's and has literally not folded to a c-bet yet.

UTG calls $0.50, MP folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $2.50</font>, 3 folds, UTG calls $2

UTG checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $4</font>, UTG calls $4

Turn: ($13.75) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $10</font>, UTG calls $10

River: ($33.75) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $18????</font>,

If not, heros action is what, and why? Further, if you advise bet, and hero is CRAI, what is your play?

If you don't have an image of betting all teh time then someone playing that aggro can be expected to raise for value with a flush at some point. If he actually flats that many flops, it couldn't hurt to pot the flop, making your bets bigger on all subsequent streets. I think you are felting this hand to crai on river because there is no way flush checks river but he might with 2 pair or set. Play is fine just charge him for messing around so loose.

I play same, poss bet a little more on river but im definately felting here.

bet slightlu more on flop and turn, and don't worry about the river checkraise as you'll be the one pushing this river

[bozzer]

i think there's plenty of value from betting here but a CRAI would be the most annoying thing ever, so if you think he can do a CRAI river bluff i would be inclined to just take the s/d.

i'd assume he's unlikely to be capable of bluff check-raising here though even given the reads you stated, so i'm probably betting and folding (with a grimance) to a raise.

Only bet to snap call obviously. I bet $13.

what pot odds would we be getting? i assumed from OP's tone+slightly deep stacks they would be significant.

[corsakh]

Odds are totally insignificant here, LAGtards never take them into account.
