Random poorly played hand

so I played this hand a few minutes ago, postflop I play hu against a very loose aggressive player whom I've played with once or twice before, he sees me as a tight aggressive player and he knows that he can provoke me into playing more loosely, he also loves stealing blinds with what seems like any two cards he's dealt as long as he doesn't get called too often:

tintin11 x : Post Blind ($0,25)
Richard_5 : Post Blind ($0,50)
Dealt to Richard_5: Q8d
*** Pre-Flop *** :
AGROFISH : Bet ($2)
tintin11 x : Fold
Richard_5 : Call ($1,50)
*** Flop *** : 7s 9d 6d
Richard_5 : Check
AGROFISH : Bet ($3,25)
Richard_5 : Raise ($6,50)
AGROFISH : Raise ($16,25)
Richard_5 : Call ($13)
*** Turn *** : [ 7s 9d 6d ] Ks
Richard_5 : Bet ($10)
AGROFISH : Raise ($35,35 )
AGROFISH : All In ($35,35 )
Richard_5 : Call ($25,35 )
*** River *** : [ 7s 9d 6d Ks ] 10s
Dealt to Richard_5: Q8d
Dealt to AGROFISH: 76c


When playing this hand my mind was still a bit set on playing a tournament, so I got inpatient and called his preflop raise. But assume you do play the hand, how would you have played it postflop? I would also argue that before the last call I made, I had to make a 25 dollar call to take down a pot of about 75, so I'd have to win one third of the times, I belive I would complete my hand about one third of the times, is this true?

Might be worth to add that even though he plays virtually every single hand he still manages to keep his stack in good shape, are there any general tips when clashing with this type of player?

  • The line is OK until this :

    AGROFISH : Bet ($3,25)
    Richard_5 : Raise ($6,50)
    AGROFISH : Raise ($16,25)
    Richard_5 : Call ($13)

    I am shoving my edge here. You're a favourite against almost everything but a set, and flipping 2pr.
  • Do you have Qd8d or just the 8d? can't tell.

    If that is Qd,8d I am +1 (shove) with two to come.
  • yeah, my cards were suited. That's a good idea, he'd probably assume I had the straight or maybe pocket 9's or something. I just need to get past the face that I'm putting most of my stack on a draw, then again, had I given it some thought I'd have realised that I'd have to do that on the turn anyway against a player like that.
  • My biggest problem with your hand is your initial check raise is way too small. The value of this hand is the fact we can shove our money in the middle and get a ton of fold equity with assurances that were at worst a coin flip against all but the top of his range.

    And as all the others have mentioned, you really need to shove 4 bet.
