AKo TPTK against TAG limp-reraiser.

[Jeff W]

Villain is a known, but nondescript TAG. Was my level of aggression appropriate or should I treat a TAG limp-reraise with more respect than I did on this scary flop? My main concerns were with the river bet and the flop check/raise.

I like everything until the river. I am check/calling.

Agreed. The river bet seems pointless unless you thought he was raising the turn for a free showdown. Looks more like a strong made hand to me though with the limp/reraise.

First of all I'm not buying a limp reraise from MP3. This feels a lot like when you see guys limp in 2nd or 3rd and then reraise when it comes back to them, those guys usually end up having A5o/78s or something like that.

That being said I'm just coming out and betting this the whole way. If that flop gets checked through it will suck.

Given the way you played the hand the river bet sucks. It looks like you put him on specifically JQ or something.
