Default Hand vs. Lag

Villain is very laggy and is possibly tilting - that is, he's getting way out of line way too often. What's my best flop line?


PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $4 BB (6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

SB ($1987.95)
Hero ($682)
UTG ($415.20)
MP ($153.45)
CO ($400)
Button ($537.20)

Preflop: Hero is BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
3 folds</font>,Button raises to $16</font>, 1 fold</font>, Hero raises to $48</font>, Button calls $32.

Flop: ($98) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)</font>


Plan?

This makes him just about the worst canidate for this kind of play. Your preflop reraise is chip spewing. Only make this raise with position against this type of opponent.

Bet $80 on the flop.

This is a hard hand... you have a sexy draw OOP with semi-deep stacks.

I think lead. is the best option. c/r-ing may pick off a bluff attempt, but also puts you in an akward position on the turn if you miss.

c/c may not be a bad option. You get either a free card or cheaper way to draw. Villan may make it quite expensive for you though.

I think lead is best. If you have been c-betting frequently, both with air/strong hands, I like leading. $70-$80 sounds good.

edit: also, what is your plan for a blank turn? c/c reasonable bet? c/f?

and I think your PF was a bit outtve line...I think you could have picked a better spot.

Check/call sucks because Hero reraised preflop. He's established himself as the aggressor in this hand, there's a lot of dead money out there for the taking, and he has a respectable shot at drawing out if Villain has a king. Bet this.

Preflop reraise sucks. Gotta bet the flop, but it's an ugly spot.

for the record I agree with that the preflop raise is bad.

Anyway, I agree we should lead the turn, the question is just for how much.

I thought about it a while, bet 45, he raised to 150 or something, and I pushed. I was thinking that I wanted my 3-bet to have bite to it; that is, if I bet out 80 there is 170 in the pot and I don't want him to overcommit himself bluff raising and I definitely don't want him pushing in on a bluff
