Default Re: $22 180 hand, calling on all streets.

I'm raising this up pre-flop. No sense in getting out-flopped by worse hands. (Incidentally, running a three-street bluff IS manaical.)

If I accidentally called, given your description of this player, it's an interesting line. My main criticism is that this is one drawlicious baord, and even if you are ahead right now, there is no guarantee that you will stay that way. (Do you REALLY want to hit two pair here?)

When villain bets t600 (again), I'm taking this pot down with a hefty raise. The pot is half your stack and well-worth winning.

On the river, the question is how confident you are that you are going to win a show-down. I think that if you were ahead on the flop, you are probably still ahead, though it sounds like a weird two-pair is entirely possible. I suppose a call is good, but I would have like a bit more aggression earlier in the hand.
