Qs Kc on a 7c Ts Jd 9s 7d board is not the nuts.

Given your roughly 50BB stack, I think that opening to $825 is a little large. Typically in that spot, I'll go 2.5x. However, if you think going larger for value is going to work from a LAG-y button, then by all means - if that were the case though, why not a full 3x? Or even 4x?

Why do we not C-bet this flop? I hate the check/call, especially against a LAG range. I think a C-bet is perfectly acceptable there - the LAG is probably not an active 3-bettor and our range certainly has hands that connect with that board. His range does as well, but his range has many more combos, obviously.

As played, his 2/3 pot bet does not give you the correct odds to call for a broadway draw. Even if you want to put him on a very specific made jack made 10 range and count your over cards for outs, we're pushing the line of profitability pretty hard. So, I'd fold as played.

I really don't like betting the turn bet once you made your hand - it basically turns your hand face up. On the upside, your opponent didn't seem to notice how obvious your range is. Why are we betting? For value? What worse hands call you? As played, I vastly prefer check/call or check/raise on turn.

Same goes for river, what worse hands call? I'd simply go for the check/call. As played, I think this is a call - if he has a boat, GG. But based on the LAG read, there are scores of combos you still beat.
