i didnt know whether i should raise the flop and play for stacks or not. i can get just under half my stack in on the flop. i do know that hes gonna fire turn if i just call. guy is loose pre and post and could overplays two pair on this turn.

i'm jacking that flop up all the time vs. a guy who is loose. as played, I might often call the turn too

there are a bunch of hands you crush here like 789T, 689J, AKTx, 9TJ, and some other hands you're even money or ahead of like 66QQ, 6677, KKTx, KK98, AAxx, etc. that could be making his bet.


-g

the thing with raising, my fold equity is small vs this guy. so its not one of those, "ill take it down mostly, and if not, i have outs." vs a guy loose like this, i liked drawing and then inflating pot since hes less likely to go away to a raise

he is likely to fold to the flop raise if he has completely nothing. if he has any possibilities at all, one pair+gutshot even he will likely stay. then im stuck with half my stack left on the turn, where i can check behind if i miss, but if he picks up an extra flush draw or something hes gonna lead allin and now i have half my stack in bad.
