Just a quick one....
I'm pretty weak HU.

Is the standard line here to wait until the turn for your raise?

Villian is V$IP = 96 PFR = 19 after 37 hands.

HU against someone this loose, bet, you have the best hand, get money in now.

laggy or just loose? if laggy, i might raise the flop, smooth call a 3-bet, and then raise the turn, calling down if 3-bet again. if loose, waiting until the turn is fine.

I like this! I have all these stinking stats for a reason. I don't know what his Aggression factor after pre-flop was but at the time I did have it available to me. If it is high then your line is great. If it low and he is just a LAG pre-flop then your right, just smooth call the flop and then raise the turn.

Nice thoughts.
