feurinho78 just sat down and posted the BB.
He is a 59/37/2.45 and he likes to push me around.

Funny. He likes to push me around too and I'm 23/16/2.5. Maybe it's not just us. Maybe he plays like that against everyone.

I love this guy. He's monster LAGgro and you really shouldn't be playing with him to your left. Change seats and/or tables.

He's like an ATM with position. He doesn't read hands well at all, he just hits the raise button a crapload. I'll cap top pair on the flop and turn against this guy all day long. Middle pair too on my good days.

If you can be counted on to get aggression from the BB, then wait until you have an edge (i.e., a hand that can showdown). I would check-fold J9 against this sort of opponent (i.e., who will raise a limp, or 3-bet a raise, and continuation bet every street).

As for your river checkraise, I think it never works against an opponent like this. He will call with any pair or ace high. Your river checkraise also filled no obvious draws, so it smells more like you're making a move than normal.

Default An alternative thought

Not that I'd try this, but if you're going to make a move on him with a marginal hand, what about completing from the SB, then three-betting his raise and leading the flop?

i don't get it, you're trying to bluff a loose maniac. what's even worse, he's not folding any pair or ace on the river, so you're spending 2 bets hoping he has (and folds) exactly Q high?
