I had reads on the player being Loose and raising a lot of hands. So when he reraised me preflop I didnt know what to do. I'm posting this hand to know what to do next time Im up against another player like this, eventhough it may just be a hand thats player dependent

Some people just will never fold Ace high. God bless them. And thank them for their money.

This guy isn't a bad lag. He's just a horrible, horrible, horrible poker player.

Anyone else has at least a king here.

Don't check/raise him on the flop. Just check/call it all the way down. That way you lose the minimum when you're behind and don't give him a chance to get away. Just give him the rope and he'll hang himself.

Perhaps I'm too weak tight but I don't like this play too much. Given your read that he is loose and raises too many hands, I would expect to see Kx or J8 just as often as Ax. Lucky for you ,your read was wrong and this guy was a complete moron not just your typical LAG. JMO

Looking back at the hand the reraise might not have been right, but I would have still called him down to the river. A few hands before he had made the same raise pre flop where I reraised with aces to aces the same way. That hand ended up going to the turn with me playing very aggressive on the flop. So II had a feeling he was just trying to play back at me with one of the crappy hands he raises.
