    PP 5/10 6-max
    I've played with villain a good amount over the last few days. He is very aggro, but certainly not bad, as I constantly see him with a big stack. He likes to raise and reraise a lot.

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Button ($153)
    Villain ($2500)
    Hero ($965)
    UTG ($1338)
    MP ($1062)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with Qclub.gif, Kheart.gif. Villain posts a blind of $5.
    2 folds, Villain (poster) raises to $30, Hero raises to $95, Villain calls $70.

    Flop: ($210) Jspade.gif, Theart.gif, 8spade.gif(3 players)
    Villain checks, Hero bets $200, Villain calls $200.

    Turn: ($610) 9diamond.gif(3 players)
    Villain bets $150, Hero calls $660 (All-In)


    So I figure that villain has a weakish made hand or a draw, with probably more weight on the made hand. To give you some background - yesterday, he called a raise of mine oop with A8, flop 89Q, he check/called pot, and turn A, he led for about 2/3rds pot.

    The question is ... is there any merit to just calling the turn trying to get him to think that *I* have a weakish made hand, so that he might pay me on the river?

    With the board the way it is, I think its hard for him to call me without a Q here.

    Normally I dont much like slowplaying straights, especially on two-flush boards .... but perhaps this is a spot where I should.

    Comments?
