    Default turn pairs board, got overpair

    Opponent is loose calling pf and also a loose bettor. Since he is loose, am I more inclined to give him credit for calling pf and flop w/ a 5? is this an easy call? It's half a buyin more, can I get away from this

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG ($90.75)
    MP ($101.65)
    Hero ($147.85)
    Button ($87.90)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with J, J.
    UTG raises to $4, 1 fold, Hero raises to $15, 3 folds, UTG calls $11.

    Flop: ($31.50) 5, 6, 4 (2 players)
    UTG checks, Hero bets $20, UTG calls $20.

    Turn: ($71.50) 5 (2 players)
    UTG bets $55.75 (All-In), Hero ??

    seems like he's just trying to represent the 5 but doesnt really have it. maybe an overpair between 7s-Ts

    How is this easy?

    He saw that you (a somewhat conservative player I assume) have reraised. He saw that you bet the flop. He has to know that theres a good chance you have have an overpair. Any decent player has you beat here, or has a combo draw.

    I probably fold. I dunno. ima fish. I think calling here is fairly thin if its +EV.

    No, since he is loose, his range is very wide and includes a lot of hands you beat. So I'd call pretty quickly.

    You reraise preflop against a loose donkey with what is almost certainly the best hand, the flop comes rags and he check-calls. Now an innocuous 5 comes on the turn (which suggests no real threats), he goes all-in for less than the pot, and you're worried? Why? I think this is a pretty easy call.
