Villain has been very loose preflop and just saw him try and bluff someone out of a nice pot the hand before with nothing and was called so he may be tilting here as he lost a decent amount on the bluff. Blinds are about to go up to 200/400 within 2 minutes.

How would you play this hand the rest of the way?

any opinions here?

Not that I'm nearly qualified and I'm sure someone better suited will correct me if I'm wrong, but I fire out 1500 here and hope he's on a lower pair or AK. If the Turn looks safe, I fire the 2nd barrel and hope he folds, if not, I'm pretty much done with 'em.

Yeah, I bet here also-- 1/2 to 2/3 of the pot. If he raises I'm usually done.

Well I led out for 1/2 the pot and he put me all in. Ater long deliberation I figured he could have anything being a LAG and might be trying to push me off witha flush draw. With the blinds about to go up and left with 10 BB I decided I was making my stand and he turned over Q8 and I'm done.

Thanks to those who repled.
