standard? villain is lag and steals a lot, but I don't really know how he plays post flop. I am tag.

Also, if I had AsQs and did the same against this villain, except the flop came like T J 8 one spade, would it be standard to cbet and fold to a raise there too?

Do you ever do a different line then cbet and fold to a raise without a strong hand after reraising pre flop from a blind?

*shrug*

I don't see what $25 on the flop gets you that $20 won't.

A case can be made for checking here, but otherwise whatever. You don't seem to have cause to re-raise him and his super-aggro style is going to win him a few of these.

Not sure what you mean...are you saying calling the pre flop raise instead of reraising makes more sense?? how come? to keep the pot small with the low end of the "my hand is better" range?

And I definitely agree about the $20 vs $25 bet thing. It was from acting too quickly.

Re-raising all-in on the flop.
