    Default Interesting, One Card SF draw vs. Loose Shorty

    Alright, I'm having some difficulty getting the actual HH from ongame network, so I'll paraphrase.

    Villain is really loose, and overvalues his hands. He will raise with hands that he thinks are the best, and calls with all kinds of crap pf.

    $100NL 5-handed
    Me: $100 in CO
    Villain: $60 in BTN

    Pf:
    It is folded to me on CO, I look at :Ac: :Js:
    I raise to $4.
    Villain calls, all else folds.

    Flop:
    Flop comes :Ts:
    Giving me the one-card straight flush draw.
    I fire out $10, a little over PSB.
    Villain raises to $30, leaving him with about $25 behind.
    Hero?

    I believe my options are push or fold on this flop. Normally I think it's an OK fold, but this villain has such a wide range... I've seen him calling pfrs with stuff like 37s. He could be raising me with a low flush, a straight, an OESD that he thinks is good, Qs, Ks, As, or even some weak top pair like KTo down through T5o.

    What do you guys think?

    Is he loose passive or loose aggressive?

    I think I just push and laugh when I 2 out him.

    Lol, to tell you the truth, I've seen him raise draws, but i've also seen him call down gutshots. I think he's just loose.

    Why the overbet on flop? I know it may seem minor, but observant players can pick up these kinds of tells. Just make a normal c-bet and take it from there.

    I think I'd fold here, since you don't even know if any of your outs are live (well besides the SF outs), and have at best around 50% equity if you push. Also consider c/c flop, if you think he's likely to raise you w/a wide range. You really don't mind getting a free/cheap card here.
