A3s in the SB. I play some poker.

Many of you aren't going to like this hand, but it's actually awesome, and by awesome I mean totally sweet.

Villain is very loose and aggressive. He's stealing with way too much and betting the flop way too often. However, he's also giving up way to early postflop. (Or maybe that is his redeeming counter-fault)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls.

He's raising with two cards, I have a showdown hand, I have huge postflop skillz, it's dark, and I'm wearing sunglasses. Hit it.

Flop: (7 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">Button bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, Button calls.

I check-raise to collect an extra bet from him when he doesn't even have a pair (what, 75% of the time here?) and to set him up for his patented turn fold.

Turn: (5.50 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, Button calls.

Whoops, he didn't fold, but I have a flush draw anyhow.

River: (7.50 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>

Will he dump here one time in 7.5? I think it beats checking and calling. Checking and folding seems too weak for 7.5 bets because I think he's capable of a bluff.

What do you do on the river?
