    Read: this dude and I play a lot and go at each other quite a bit. He just called a a check-raise all in in a re-raised pot with ace high, and my kings held up. He said he thought ace high was good, so we're playing really fast.

    hmm not sure if I like your turn lead... Is villain really that loose where you can expect to be ahead here a reasonable amount of the time? Are hands like AJ/KJ/TJ/9J included in villain's range?

    I agree I'm most likely behind to his range on flop, but I think I can get him to fold almost all of his hands by betting again here, and if he doesn't I have outs. He will definitely fold all one pair hands, but he might push all his combo one pair +draw hands here.

    When he moves all-in here, what are his possible holdings? When I played this hand I could only think of one, flush draw, but now I'm see'ing a few others. 910s, and JQ(unlikely) are possible, however I think he's on a draw at least half the time when pushing here. Sometimes a split, sometimes Im ahead of 9J, or i'm crushing his flush draw.
