    Default $200NL hand

    Villain here is 47/21 over 70 hands. 3 times already I have seen him bet very weak and fold to a repop (1x by me).
    I don't like raising AQo OOP against 2 of these loose limpers who I know will call almost 100% of time and be hard to read postflop so I complete in SB.
    I lead flop and when I get 3 calls I am scared I may not be good hence turn check.
    I then become fairly confident my hand is beating the other 2 players when they have called flop and checked turn on a drawing board and this guys $5 bet means nothing so I raise - Should I have raised more?
    I have to call 1/3 pot on river from this guy with 3 queens A kicker even though he may have flush and I feel there is little value raising as he is unlikely to call with a hand I beat.

    as played, I dont see how you can do better... Depending of opponent some time it may be a good idea to value-block bet the river, but here t seems good to me.

    KJ

    calling $25 on a river draw is questionable on CO's part... I say call the 1/3 pot bet, but I would never be surprised to lose.

    I play this exactly the same way. I'm looking to fold the turn most of the time here, but I'm raising a weak ass bet. If villain had a flush draw, why not just take the free card, is this what he calls a semi-bluff, lol?
