    The villain is playing a LAG game (29/17/2). he has not been out of line.

    preflop and flop are fine obv. On the turn he c/r you, what did the 5 change about the hand? Well nothing really unless he had A4 or 46 which I'm going to pay off. You should be pushing here if you're going to continue. I'm not sure I could fold here since you're only beaten by 2 hands so push. On the river it's probably a fold but I talk myself into a call since you're getting ~7:1.

    ok, you're playing exactly like AK, AA, KK would - and villain is still prepared to get it all in. I put villain on 22 or 33, maybe AK but I think they played the turn to strongly for that. I probably fold to the turn check-raise cos it reeks of a low set. Can't think of anything you're beating once the river king comes. Fold.

    fold turn unless you know he stacks of with TP here.
    If he stacks off lighlty you have no choice but to commit (although river is a fold) otherwise make a weak fold and believe we will find a better spot.

    I think your play is fine up to river.
    Any card that is not a King on the river and no-brainer as to whether you put your remaining $8 in and being called. Unfortunately the river was a King, you cannot beat any of the villains possible holdings. No chance that he is bluffing because what does he think that he can push you off when you are getting 7:1?
    pocket Jacks eh?

    What do we think his lead into us on the flop means? It might be a medium hand like TT seeing if we missed or it could be a strong hand like a set looking to get raised. In those cases raising must be bad. I would call, check behind on the turn if possible and call or bet the river.
    I think a raise is only good if he has AK.

    I think there is too much money behind on the flop for getting all in to show a positive expectation so I wouldn't be building a big pot here. As played you might as well push over on the turn, you are commited to the hand.
    Must get more aggressive - Tonight we dine in $25NL! rah rah rah! etc
