$25 6max - AJo in cutoff

[Semillon]

Had a decent read on MP, classic LAG who just bets bets bets, he had been pushing the table around somewhat and builtup a x2 buyin stack.

Did I leave $15 behind on this hand? I feel my preflop and flop play is sound, not so sure about turn and river.

The pot was big enough that I think you could have easily gotten more than another $8 out of that river. I'm raising to at least $21 (3x his raise) and most likely pushing. He leads out on the turn and your call doesn't slow him down at all so you can be pretty sure he has an Ace. Hopefully he has A4 or A6, but he will talk himself into thinking his kicker might be good if he actually even thinks about anything other than "I have an Ace - WHOOPIE!"

I am happy to call the turn but once he bets the river again I am moving all in, I know it is probably an over bet, but by this point he has basically told me he has a weak ace that he isn't going to fold.


Plus, an all in over bet could look like a desperate bluff with a missed flush draw.... well, to a desperate LAG who wants any excuss to call you down....
