hm

So I finally got a table. Villain is really aggressive, raising and reraising me a lot. Pretty quick, this happens:

My thinking was that calling twice looked pretty strong and sixes, fives, nines, and potentially spades are bad for my action on the river. I'm pretty sure villain wouldn't fold top pair in a reraised pot, so this maxes value from Ax, but pretty much nukes his pocket pairs.

Shortly after:

Quoth Shads, "don't fold top pair in reraised pots." Granted, AT is like the edge of my reraising range, but this guy has got to be calling way looser. He snap called the flop and I thought I was done, but I guess not.

"don't fold" worked the first time...I was mostly worried about KQ and JT, but I'm getting 3:1 and he'll do this with AQ and just about any K for sure.

This is the first fourbet pot. He's probably not checkraising this deep with ace high. I think he had jacks.

He was floaty. F that.

The river bet is actually awful because I'm only ever called by like queens. c/c is infinitely better and the guy is so aggro the call is mandatory after the turn check.

This is kinda sketch because it's an ace high board in a reraised pot but he was 3betting really light and he still has to give me some measure of credit.

Man, that turn is some kinda bad for me. I don't usually float reraised pots for obvious reasons, but I have a gutshot and two overs, and I think my ten is good here most of the time. I didn't see him say anything but I think it's more of a reason to fold.

I dunno, I can flat the flop but he's not calling a turn shove with anything I beat and here he might get heroic with a good ace given all the draws. I guess it's a question of how often he second barrels vs how much he calls here (and how much of his calling range I beat)

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1341328

Looking for a call from ace high. I would assume he'd lead the flop with pocket pairs but on the turn he looks like he feels his hand has some showdown value i.e. AQ?

Basically, drawheavy board, looking up the semibluff.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?1341338

Awk-ward. Because I folded the AT hand and generally felt like he was running me over I decided to call here. I don't hate it in principle because the fact that he has A7 in this spot means that he can potentially make a move with a lot here but to be fair he hasn't actually shown up with many bluffs so this is probably a bit spewy.
