Villain is 71/3/8.3/7 [VPIP/PFR/Flop Raise/Aggresion]. so very loose and passive preflop, but then very aggressive postflop. UTG I get KQs, I call. Flop is KJT with a diamond flush draw and an obvious straight draw; however I also have outs to the straight. The pot is $1 and I lead with $0.50, so half the pot which gives incorrect odds to a flush, I then get minraised which is essentially a standard play from villain, I call having seen villain do this with TPNK. The turn brings another K and a second club, I bet 2/3 pot and again get minraised, again I call. River is a blank and I bet a little less than half the pot, he calls.

Should I think anything of these minraises from a very loose player who is aggressive postflop? Against an unknown I would play this much more carefully, but having seen this player showdown several hands played very similarly with TPNK, should I give him any credit for his raises?

 This is where I would differ. I really don't like LAggs min-raising. Doesn't seem right. Plus trips on here just seem too vulnerable. What would you have done if he re-raised you again on the river?

If his regular play was to make a standard raise, I would agree, but his regular play was to minraise or minbet. Against a push on the river I would probably fold as he has had similar betting lines with a weak pair turned flush draw [ATs or the like], but part of the reason the bet was less than half the pot was because Id most likely call another minraise.

 Thought by aggressive you meant he was typically re-raising more than the minimum. This hand looks good to me then.
