Lot's of people who post here either haven't read them or forgot what they read. Keep posting and learning here AND read some books, imo.

This villain you have found seems to be suffering from LOTS of great leaks. These seem to be his most obvious ones:

1. Extreme looseness preflop
2. Calling-station tendencies postflop
3. FPS (fancy play syndrome) especially with premium hands
4. Bluffs too often (at micros most decent "bluffs" are actually semi-bluffs, "bluffs" with outs) and with total air.

I think what folks are trying to say above is that each of these conditions is exploitable in different ways, so you'd like to gather more information on how to tell when he's being a station vs. when he's trying some "fancy play" with a big hand, when he's vulnerable because of his bluffing tendencies, etc. You've identified his major leaks, now just try to notice what tipoffs he'll give you about which leak he's falling prey to in which hands.
