weird re-raise hand (play along)

[TheWorstPlayer]

This is a very good post, I think, thanks. I thought at the time that he would have made a real raise with a real hand and that he was mostly min-raising garbage. When he called my re-raise, of course it had to occur to me that he might have a real hand, but he also could call that re-raise with any two really. Also, if he had a monster, I thought he was the type to push preflop instead of flat call. But I was pretty uncertain. In any case, I checked the turn for the reasons that you said. Now what?

The new and more aggro me bets most (or all?) of my chips on the river because it gives my opponent a chance to make a mistake as long as he doesn't have a monster. I don't know if he'll fold better hands, I don't know if he'll call with worse hands, but I'm pretty damn sure he's not putting me on A9 so I know he has to make a mistake with some certain range of hands, even if I don't know what it is. If I check and he bets, then I really have no fuxoring clue what to do, because he's probably going to take a stab at the pot with any sort of busted hand after I check twice, but I'd also expect him to bet with many hands better than mine.

btw, I'm not a fan of the turn check, unless you're giving up on the pot. Betting out here is your best chance to move your opponent off of QQ-TT, assuming he gives you some respect. As with the river bet that I proposed, it's something of a two-way bet... maybe he'll fold a better hand, maybe he'll call with a worse hand. Depends how big the L is in LAG. Also letting him take a free card when he's trailing sorta sucks.
