How's my line?

Villain is loose, agressive over 1 orbit, his first at the table. He's played hard at 2/3 of the hands dealt, trying to get folks to fold on the river.

Hero bets, MP raises, Hero 3-bets, MP caps, Hero calls.

Guess what I'm saying is, is this how I'm supposed to be using "reads"? If he's loose and plays agressive with crap usually, try to soak him?

Is your question to 3bet the river or not?

Not sure what you're asking.

This is a hand you would play like this no matter what kind of reads you have. The only thing you're losing to on the river is TT.

Ahh, ok. Thanks. Just making sure I'm not being an idiot.

I don't know if you should play your hand this way because of the read. Even the tighest TAG can appear to be a super LAG over the course of one orbit. However, I think your line was fine for the hand that you have no matter who your opponent is. You are doing no worse than splitting this pot to anything but TT. Given the action you are likely ahead.

You've got the functional nuts against a Villain who may payoff with an underboat. I'd cap the river 100% of the time here.

bet/bet/bet? Looks good. one hand beats you, and it would have probably raised the turn. If you are looking for a pat on the back, I guess I'm giving it to you, but I don't see much in the way of content in this thread.

There is no other way to play it.

Are you saying should you check/raise somewhere or something? Villian isn't playing back at you on any street, just bet all the way, no point in giving him a free street.
