ak vs loose villain.

Thoughts on this play? Villain was playing fairly loose...i had only been at the table 6 or so orbits.

I would put villain on kq qj a10 aj 88 TT JJ

Is that range for pre-flop?
Since he's loose I'll stack off expecting to see a worse king much of the time.

I can't see QJ, AJ or AT being a big part of his range, given the flop bet. If he is going to donk bet most of his range, AQ, QQ, JT seem just as likely.

It seems to me that his most likely range is AK, KQ, KJ, KT, 88 or 55 He may have A8, K8, Q8, J8, T8, 98,78, 76, A5 especially suited, or QQ-99 but it seems a bit strange to double barrel those. AA and KK are also possible, but with 3 people already in the pot pre-flop I think most would have re-raised those pre.

As his most likely hand is a worse K, I like the way you played it with his stack size. He was committed on the turn, so it seems like a good place to have raised. If he had two hearts, or 2nd Pair you probably wouldn't have got any more money out of him on the river, unless he hit of course.

yeah sry that was pf. I cant see him having larger pps 1010+ cause i feel like he would have re-popped pre. I agree that he most likely has a worse king.

Why are you getting it in on the turn and not the flop?

I really should have in retrospect, im just never really comfortable shoving the flop...leak #4577

You have to consider what would happen if an A or a heart falls on the turn.

yeah, it was dumb letting him see a free turn by just flat calling the flop

while i don't play FR and don't know the dynamics, raising the flop is infinitely better than jamming over a PSB on the turn.
