$2/$5 NL Live..

As mentioned in previous posts, Im LAGing it up and showing bluffs all over the place. I havent been caught in a bluff yet. The players are too scared to call. I just keep showing them.

A few hands ago I limped [Kh] in EP after a limper. There were a couple short stacks and I was going to push if one of them raised. Kind of a "meh" play..but whatever.. The flop came 7 way and was [Th][8c]. Checked to me and I checked. There was a $15 bet, 3 calls....I was going ot CR, but the guy on my right check raised to $60. I showed my neighbor and folded. He was flabborgasted but was amazed when the check raiser showed down a set of 8s.

So on to the hand.....the guy I showed the hand to is the villain in this hand.

Im in the BB with [Tc]. 2 limpers and villain completes in the SB.

Pot $20. Flop [Td][3s]. He checks, I bet $15...folded to SB and he CR to $60. He started the hand with $250. Hes seen my bluffs and hes seen me make what he thought was a "HUGE laydown dude". His words.

Whats my play? Im 75% sure he has A3 based on previous play and what I think he thinks of me.

repop it's going in. He considers laying down TPTK in an unraised pot a huge laydown, which implies he can't make them.

Probably CRAI. He calls with A3 for sure.

I also don't think flat calling is bad here sometimes. Diamonds shouldn't really be a worry for you with your read, since he presumably doesn't have them. But they might get him to fold. Also a T is going to counterfeit his hand, but on the presumably one remaining A, you get his stack.

The way you're playing, I think the CRAI is the better play the vast majority of the time, though.

Off the topic of the specific hand, it sounds like the 2/5 down there is playing really tight-passive (which makes your LAG-ish play much better). Do you ever try the 5/10?

I don't think you can put him on a diamond draw, not with the CRing act. He sounds like a very basic player. 33 is possible but A3 is more likely. I think this is a milking spot and the play here is to try and induce an AI move as you're almost certainly ahead, way ahead.
