Villain is something like 26/14/4.5 which is very loose and aggressive for full ring.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $2 BB (7 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

MP1 ($382.65)
MP2 ($891.20)
CO ($131.55)
Button ($225.65)
Hero ($228.05)
BB ($318)
UTG ($223)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A, T.
5 folds, Hero raises to $8, BB calls $6.

Flop: ($16) 6, A, 6 (2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets $8, Hero calls $8.

Turn: ($32) 8 (2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets $24, Hero calls $24.

River: ($80) A (2 players)
Hero checks, BB bets $88, Hero calls $88.

Final Pot: $256

If you don't understand why this is a bad place to c-bet against this villain, then start at the end of the hand (the river) and figure out why I just check/call.

Post what you think.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
