trips played super aggro

villain is pretty laggy/spewy and not very good, but nothing terrible. The other two are quite good and the game will probably break up if/when villain leaves. I was kinda lost in this hand. Comments on any street are appreciated, although I think the river was by far the most interesting. I'm obviously trying to get value from an outkicked ace, but a backdoor flush isn't beyond the realm of possibility. If he has a missed flush draw, then the bet also sucks, obviously.

I cover by about 600.

If he is laggy don't you think he will bet his weak ace if you check river?

way above any level I've ever played at, but if he's bad wouldn't a check/raise on the river be awesome here?

even bad players probably won't call this with a hand that doesn't whip you...

no, I think any sane player checks back a weak ace here on the river, as they should.

is this guy sane enough, though, to realize that you're probably not bluffing here, like ever?

I won't say this is never a bluff, say something like , but obviously this is rarely a bluff. I think your average player knows this, but we've all seen worse hands call here. I don't have a whole lot of history with this guy though honestly. I havn't played any big pots with him either and that lack of info kinda sucks.

Hey Lukie is thatFTRs TalentedTom playing up there with you?

BTW I would think a c/r all-in on the river would be a better play in a more aggressive game like that but my expertise ends at 200NL so I shouldn't offer my thoughts...

Yes

the sick thing here is if I'm villain I can see myself folding a flush

not sure what that means about the bet...

The one thing that worries me, is when a laggy spewy, yet not terrible opponent turns awful loose passive through two streets.

"villain is pretty laggy/spewy and not very good, but nothing terrible"

I'm going to guess villain had a better hand, but I haven't been good at the hand guessing game lately.

you missed out on value by pushing. i would do this against a complete fish or someone really suspicious of me, but i doubt this opponent is either.

villain tanked and I immediately thought he had a weak ace. After a while he says 'u have a house', which I interpreted as a question at the time because he still took a while after this to make his decision.

*** RIVER *** [As 7d 6s Ad] [3d]
Lukieplaya: bets $1479 and is all-in
OCqueen said, "u have a house"
OCqueen: folds
Lukieplaya collected $803 from pot
Lukieplaya: doesn't show hand

the next hand he said he mucked a flush, and I'm pretty sure he was being honest. It was probably a turned combo draw, assuming he was telling the truth, which I think he was.
