Button's vpip is 95 in fifty hands with a 2.44 Agression factor.

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with T/images/graemlins/club.gif, K/images/graemlins/spade.gif.
<font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls.

I didn't think a cap was appropriate without position.

Flop: (7.50 SB) Q/images/graemlins/heart.gif, K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, Hero calls.

I now think I should have three bet. Thoughts?

Turn: (5.75 BB) 7/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, Hero calls.

River: (7.75 BB) 2/images/graemlins/spade.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 9.75 BB

The turn and river play I'm unsure of as well. That fourth heart doesn't have me feeling great. I need to improve in these situations. I don't think Clarkmeister's theorem has any application here, as this guy will not fold.

I am much better in these spots against tighter players. What's the line guys, because this is a spot in my game I need to fix. Obliged.

Unless i'm mistaken, Clarkmeister's theorem only applies when the 4th suited appears on the river, not the turn. Also I would 3-bet the flop. If capped, I bet/fold a non-heart turn and check/fold a heart turn. I also bet/fold any turn if he just calls the 3-bet. Not terribly sure of this line but thats what I would do.

Folding postflop would be terrible, so there's no need to consider that. Someone with a VPIP of 95 and an AF or 2.4 is absolutely crazy, even if it is just 50 hands. What about preflop raising/3betting?

Considering his crazy level, I would usually 3bet the flop here, unless he gets a lot tighter/normal after he 3bets preflop. Check-calling down after that 4th heart hits is fine.

Thanks for correcting me. Clarkmeister's theorem definitely doesn't apply because it was turn and not river.

As for folding, this guy is a 94 w/ a 2.4 agrro. I think I have to call him down here.
