I know nothing about the opponent, my image is pretty darn loose and fairly aggressive. He thought about 15 seconds before throwing out the bet.

P.S. Playing virtually every hand pre flop is funny because you get berated for being a bad player when you take peoples stacks

that's hilarious... atl seems like he's already beat and willing to donate to you.

what happened in the first hand?

I HATE these people who CALL on a low set. WTF is that? Well, actually I like them it's a woeful play but they keep stacking me with one outers

Anyhow, I think the hand in question is terribly close. A lot depends on your image and the opponent; without any additional info I'd lean towards calling down if you think he'll pay off something like a 1/3 pot bet on the river if you boat up. Another additional help (that would actually have killed you here!) is a diamond on the river, making a pot bet and pushing him off a straight. With my relatively tight image I'd be happy to make that play against many opponents, though I suspect your hyper-aggro image may be more of a help than a hindrance here.

Did you just call the turn or push? If you've been pushy and aggressive all along then I guess your image could work in your advantage - if you assume he has a straight, you can call for the boat if you think he'll make a petulant river push regardless what comes, as that gives you big implied odds.

Interesting hand, though. What do others think?
