Eight players, 2/5 blinds in underground game. I've got 600 in front of me, average stack size. Playing behind a LAG, 875, who pops the blinds hard with all strong hands, but also with any two suited connectors/1 gappers 5x Pot. He only raises 2-3xpot when he has A/weak or little pocket pairs. I'm tight aggressive but occasionally tricky. Last week I limped on As(yeah I know it's dumb, but I was UTG, planning on reraising and it was naturally the first time in 6-7 hands there wasn't a pre-flop raise) and doubled up through villian.

I'm in the SB with red fives.

UTG limps
MP(1) limps
MP(2) raises to 20
Button raises to 60
Hero calls
All fold

Flop:
A /images/graemlins/diamond.gif K /images/graemlins/spade.gif 9 /images/graemlins/club.gif
Hero checks
Button bets 120
Hero pushes.

Thoughts on the play? Results in white.

And you said I had guts for the other play? Is villian a smart lag? Only a smart lag is going to lay this down, a regular maniac with a decent ace here will go all the way. It sounds like he is a smart lag, so you probably won unless he had AA/KK/AK...nice play.

Hero shows LAG his 5s after hand is over, I hope.

Naw, just shrugged and after he got a disgusted look on his face I said "Good lay down."
