    Default Big Slick vs HUGE Maniac

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    saw flop|saw showdown

    UTG ($25.05)
    UTG+1 ($29.30)
    MP1 ($25)
    MP2 ($35.45)
    MP3 ($19.40)
    CO ($271.75)
    Button ($24.65)
    Hero ($35.50)
    BB ($38.63)

    Villain is VP$IP: 91.91 PFR: 56.62 and was running over the whole table.Everyone was basically nut camping on him including me.Villain makes moves here and there just to note.

    Preflop: Hero is SB with K, A. Hero posts a blind of $0.10.
    5 folds, CO raises to $1, Button calls $1, Hero (poster) raises to $5.4, 1 fold, CO calls $4.50, Button folds.

    Villain made his standard preflop raise with any two so I reraise him and the other cold caller.Button folded so I managed to isolate him heads up.

    Flop: ($12.25) Q, 5, 7 (2 players)
    Hero checks, CO checks.

    Normally I'd bet this flop but villain had a tendency to call any flop bet.He was more likely to fold the turn when he felt beat(although not always).Villain was likely to bet at the river if he sensed weakness on the turn when checked to.I decided to take a free card.

    Turn: ($12.25) T (2 players)
    Hero bets $8, CO raises to $20, Hero folds.

    Final Pot: $40.25

    Not sure if my check on the flop gave him a green light.If I had been suited to the flush draw I would've played his harder;but with two the diamonds and me drawing to probably 3 outs I laid this one down.I'm interested in hearing everyone's feedback on the flop and turn play for this hand.

    Preflop I dont know if I like the reraise to isolate, its a bigger raise than I think it needs to be and even if you do isolate you wills till be OOP against a maniac.

    Heads up on this flop I dont think that is a great spot to be cbetting OOP, especially against a loose player, there are flush draws and straight draws both of which will be getting calls.

    I dont really like betting this turn, you have two overs and atleast 3 outs to a straight [discounting the Jd]. If you bet and are raised you are going to have to fold, if you check and he checks behind you get a free card to make your hand. If he bets small you can call and get paid off on the river, if he makes a big bet you can get away for cheap.

    Also, instead of making 10 threads, just post a bunch of hands in one, its much easier to respond to them all in oen thread and doesnt take up as much room in the forum.
