Default Forgetting which game I\'m playing

3-handed. From what I remember villain is kinda loose and aggressive but we've been mostly tangling HU so it's easy for me to have that image of him at this point.

Folded to me OTB, I raise A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Villain calls in BB.

Flop is 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. He checks, I bet, he raises, I 3-bet, he caps.

Turn 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Bet-call.

River Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Bet-call.

I don't like it, because, I don't think AK plays this way. I think AK 3 bets preflop and/or slows down, at least, by the river.

I think once he caps then you can fold the turn UI.
Unless you know something you're not telling us.

I think I'd rather you raise the turn, and then fold if he bets/raises again.

Of course, if it was me, I'd probably have simply called his raise on the flop and c/f the turn.

I don't know why you're mentioning AK here. What's a general handrange for a 842hh flop checkraise+turn bet by a loose aggressive player?

What's a range you're putting a LAG on for checkraising this flop and betting the turn?

I'd put A high in the range you specified, but not in the range that checkraises, caps, and then leads. I'd say {a pair or flush draw} is a wide range for that.

My guesstimated range was something like 65s, occasional but rare 2's, occasional 4's, pairs 55-77, 8's, hearts, and air. Something like 76s a certain amount of the time as well.

Why not just call down to the flop c/r? Must you get that extra bet in on the flop?

From memory Peter Rus had a post a while back about what LAG's bets mean on each street. A flop cap meant a strong draw or pair, I think. Betting the Turn falls into that line. LAG's hate checking the river when they miss. I like the hand.
