Default A9s \"steal\"

CO is very loose and calls my raises all the time 60/11 and passive
SB plays odd, he is 30/11 and too aggressive postflop with 2.5/5/2.

SB could be betting with Ax and perhaps some low pocket but I think he would've 3bet any pocket that has me beat here, he could have a flushdraw with suited connectors as well. So I raise to get the loosie out. But then I don't follow through because I catch a flushdraw on the turn?

consider betting the turn and checking behind on the river. i say consider b/c this guy is so likely to c'r you with even 1 pair that checking and hopefully inducing a bluff may be best.

wait, huh?

did you just contradict yourself? you have a good hand with many outs if he has you beat.. why do you want to bet and risk a PROBABLE checkraise?

of the times he checkraises, hero is behind a vast majority of the time. that is the assumption going into it given his turn aggression factor. if that is wrong and villian will not only c'r his 1 pair hands but more of his straight bluffs and draws then sure, bet into it.

my statement, however, was not an inherent contradiction.

I'd bet the turn and call down a raise (unimproved). Even if you are behind, you likely have 15 outs, so betting can't be that big of a mistake. If he likes to check-raise the turn a lot with a lot of bluffs/draws, don't deny him to chance to.
