Preflop Capper is running 26/9/1.35 - loose but not too bad. I have a little history with him.

The BB cold caller is running 41/12/0.24 82% ShowDown /39% W$@SD over about 70 hands since I've sat down. He is ridiculously loose and likely has cold-called my 3bet with his top 60% of hands, weighted more towards suited hands. I've seen him bluff before (on the turn) when no one else showed interest in a pot. Most of the time he shows down any pair, and I've seen him call down with ace and even king high once.

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with Q, A.
1 folds, UTG+1 raises, 2 folds, Hero 3-bets, 3 folds, BB calls, UTG+1 caps, Hero calls, BB calls.

Flop: (12.50 SB) 7, J, 2 (3 players)
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero checks.

Turn: (6.25 BB) 9 (3 players)
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, Hero checks.

UTG+1 certainly has AK here, probably not with the K of spades. The donk could have any 2 cards and isn't folding. My instinct was to take a freebie.

River: (6.25 BB) 5 (3 players)
BB bets, UTG+1 folds, Hero...?

It's very possible that the donk just hit a pair with that 5. His post-flop aggression factor is so, so low, but after both opponents checked through twice, I could see him bluffing with his hopeless hands. 7:1 is pretty good odds... right?
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.
