and he's aggressive and tricky.

Hi elindauer,
I guess I should have redefined "tricky". He won't check-raise without some sort of made hand. In this case, I had to call the check-raise as I felt it was just as likely he's doing it on two pair as the straight.

Results below:

Garland has Qs Qc (three of a kind, queens).

That kind of tricky. He will chase all sorts of draws and bet on the flop once, but shut down afterwards.
Thanks for your thoughts.
