Affront is a loose player. He doesnt limp into pots. Only raises. Will raise w/ any 2 face cards including a 10. When affront raises this, I put him on KQ or QJ. So I reraise, knowing he's a loose player, and if I hit my flop, I will make money.

*I bet this turn b/c of my flush draw. I knew I was dead in the pot once they called my flop raise. There were only 5 cards in the deck that would beat me and I had the pot odds already. I was betting $2 into a $19 pot. I felt I had the odds to bet this *

** Dealing River ** : [ 3c ]

*best possible card for me, just don't know why I didnt bother to bet. VERY VERY stupid play on my part. Only 5 cards in the deck could have gotten me and I should have taken that risk, oh well. Had great pot odds *

affront checks.

You guys think this was a good play against a very loose, reckless player, or did I play this completely wrong ?

Don't isolate with A8o when there is a calling station in the pot. You NEED to get this heads-up to the flop. Quite often these guys are playing a bigger Ace, so I would just fold pre-flop. I'd rather make this play with 88.
