    Although villain is 14/12, because he is isolating a fish, would I be right to say he is probably raising a little wider than 12% ? I know I would want to play lots of pots against that UTG opponent.

    Pre: { 66+,A9s+,K9s+,QTs+,JTs,ATo+,KJo+,QJo }, which is 14%. I'm not 100% sure on this. Which do you think this type of villain values more for isolating, something like QJo, 66, 87s, or A5s? I ask because DoubleJ included A5s and 87s but not QJo or 66.

    Flop: Villain's action on the flop confuses me. If you have the read that he "plays draws aggressively on the flop," then what does it mean when he passes up the opportunity to cbet and check/calls instead? Wouldn't this be the kind of board to bet (or c/r) a hand like AhQh--two overs and the nut flush draw? [Edit: Or does the 3-way flop explain the more passive/tentative line?]

    By the river: Are there enough Q-high flushes (and maybe even some stray sets) in villain's range to ever make this a call for hero?
