    Default 200NL - new local casino

    Table fairly loose/passive standard. MP is exception, raises a lot pre, bets a lot post, seemingly indiscriminately.

    Recent hand, MP raised A2o after a couple limpers, bet Axx flop, called a donk on a blank turn, then checked behind river, chopped with A6o because of overcards on board.

    I was sort of thinking about what kinds of hands I would c/c vs this opponent over multiple streets when I look down UTG and see AJo. I limp (not great but I don't hate it, very passive play), one call, MP raises to 10, one LP call, I call, initial limper calls.

    Flop, A84r, pot 40ish. check, check, MP bets $20, fold, I call, call

    Turn, 5x, pot $100ish, check, check, MP bets $35, I call, call

    River, Tx, pot $200ish, check, check, MP bets $50, I call (shove? all have about $50 more behind)

    Good/Gross/Lazy/Fishy?

    P.S. Random in this hand has made many bad multi street call downs

    Well you're not folding any street.

    Curious if anyone ships the turn.

    I would shove the rest because he is betting so small into the pot that he is not representing a big hand.

    Will the villain call a raise that shouts "you're beat" unless he isn't beat?

    If he will call with a weaker hand then shove and hope he calls.

    If he won't call with a weaker hand no point in raising.

    Calling a river raise is different than raising with junk, but maybe he will see the pot odds and make a crying call anyway.

    It's a judgment call, seems to me like +EV to shove.

    Lighting sweet moneys on fire.
    Say something like "here's an early christmas present" or "I'm just paying to see your hand", then call and hope the third player overcalls getting 6:1.

    Thanks for the replys.

    I guess this seemed weird because I would most likely raise AQs pre, and not sure I could/would limp/call 3 streets with A9s (although now that I think about it the river changes nothing if I have A9), so this seems like such a narrow range for this line that I'm missing something.
