Default Shrimp Cocktail?

20-40 live game at Harrah's in East Chicago. Good game.

A loose straddle-happy buffoon open-raises in EP. Three players cold call, and I call in the SB with AJo. The BB calls. All callers are too loose preflop.

Six of us see a flop ($240):
J98 rainbow

I bet out, hoping that LAG will raise to narrow the field. Instead, BB calls, LAG calls, and two more overcall behind him.

Turn ($340, 5 players)

A low card falls, putting two diamonds on the board. I bet and get calls from the LAG and an old loose passive dude in MP.

River ($460, 3 players)

The two of diamonds, making a flush possible but little else.

I bet, LAG calls, and the old dude raises. I have been at the table for ~4 hours or so and ... well ... he's pretty much the working definition of loose passive. I fold getting around 15.5:1. It was the combination of the player and the situation that made me do it.
