No reads on this guy yet really. He just sat down, and for the past 5 hands or so he was 75/25.

How do you like the line?

Had the villian shown anything down in those 5 hands? If he had shown down at least 1 strong hand there, I like your line. If you think he was playing typical donkey poker, I would have check raised the turn and taken his $6.40.

I should preface, that I have a habit of not believing players that sit down and play with alot of aggression. I loose some times, but the majority of these players are action junkies that want to put on big bluffs and they quickly loose their stack.
