    Default $16 - AQ, agressive line on KQx drawy board

    How is this?
    Villain was loose passive.
    I cbet because: a) it is drawy b) the K does not scare me too much (people don’t call a raise with Kx as often as with Ax) c) he checked to me.

    UTG+1 bets t915 all in, Hero calls t910 all in
    I am just another learning player, so read my comments (very) open minded.

    If villian is loose passive why not get it all in on the turn? Most loose passive players will bet/raise when they have hit their hand unless it is a big hand (Like pocket 6's).

    I don't think that checking behind on the turn is a horrible play, but you may have given villian a free card to chase a flush or str8.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

    I think this is played fine. I would not get it in on the turn, there is a good chance of a cheap showdown which is what I'm looking for with second pair.

    On the river once you hit another Q, no way you can fold.
