Reads: MP3 is pretty loose pre-flop (VP about 27%), but has raised pre-flop about 20% of the time. From what I have seen so far, if his hand is something I would consider “playable”, he raises with it. If his hand is something I would throw away, he limps with it. Remaining players are passive.

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed)
Preflop: Hero is BB with 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif.
UTG calls, <font color="666666">2 folds</font>, MP1 calls, <font color="666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="CC3333">MP3 raises</font>, <font color="666666">3 folds</font>, Hero calls, UTG calls, MP1 calls.
Seems standard, since I don't expect to be dominated with the call.
Flop: (8.50 SB) 3/images/graemlins/spade.gif, 4/images/graemlins/club.gif, 9/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="blue">(4 players)</font>
Hero checks, UTG checks, MP1 checks, <font color="CC3333">MP3 bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG folds, MP1 folds, MP3 calls.
This flop likely missed MP3, so I raise for isolation. If any other player had led out before MP3, Id've folded without a second thought. The tactic worked here, but will it work often enough to be +EV? Hmmm.
Turn: (6.25 BB) 2/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, MP3 calls.
River: (8.25 BB) A/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="CC3333">MP3 raises</font>, <font color="CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, MP3 calls.
Final Pot: 14.25 BB
<font color="green">Main Pot: 14.25 BB, between Hero and MP3.</font>
---------------------------------------
I think that given the flop line, the turn and river are pretty standard. But comments on all streets are appreciated.
