Villain is playing very loose and aggressive preflop, 53/26 after 400 observed hands is the only read.

Reraise this large pf, pick up all that cash on the table.
Then the hand is over. |

I would not reraise A/Q out of position here, you are setting yourself up for a big pot out of position with a marginal holding.
I think u need to block this river... |

I am not sure i would fold A/Q pre flop for 6 bucks into a 40 dollar pot either...

Re: 400NL: AQo on SB, call the river?
I guess I just don't see why you would want to call here when you could raise large and take down this nice chunk preflop.
You have so many things going for you here. (or atleast i think so, hear me out) A) pf raiser is a lag 56/26 B) plenty of calls, ie. people disrespecting the lags raising standards/calling with pocket pairs. C) you in the SB, when you raise large here, you tend you get alot of respect due to where your raising from. You take this down most of the time here, also, if you do get called, the hand should be fairly easy to play. |

I know that a turn bet will make the river more difficult to play, but I think it is profitable in the long run. With a crazy lag, he could have any trash with his flop call, and we are very likely still ahead on the turn. By checking the turn we give him a chance to suck out on the river. Bet $60 on the turn and $100 on the river.

Re: 400NL: AQo on SB, call the river?
You say Villain is LAG preflop, but what is he like post flop? If you think he will make this play any time you check the turn and river, then you should call. But if that's not the case, then I don't think you're beating much here. You're not beating A-10, A-Q, A-K, K-Q, K-J, Q-J, or even K-x. That's assuming he didn't flop a monster hand. So basically you're only beating a total bluff. so if you think he's on a complete bluff as often as not then you can call, but you can't beat anything but a bluff.

Re: 400NL: AQo on SB, call the river?
I agree with tinker about reraising preflop. I think the river is a fold. Donk takes this line with KQ,KJ, QJ, KT, AK and a set if he's tricky. Seems like too many hands are beating you.
