As you can see from the stats BU isa crazy player who I had been looking for a chance to play a big pot against. I didn't really have any reads on the other players in the hand, but the table is generally loose, with players often calling down with any pair. So I'm pretty sure I have BU beat, and I felt the pot was too big for me to let go of my hand anywhere here. So my question is whether raising for value on the turn and river is a good idea. I figured I only need a little over 33% equity against BB's range to justify this here since BU is very rarely in the lead here. But BB has shown a lot of strength, and I'm now thinking I should have given him/her more respect and just called down. Most of the time I guess I'm up against KQ or a set here, but I also thought it possible that they're playing with hands like KJ, maybe AQ or even JT. What do you think?

Hi!

BB's cap on the flop looks like two pair+ to me. Maybe he's doing it with A:dT:d - A:dQ:d, but he doesn't seem too crazy, so I'd give him some credit. I would just call the turn and call down.

The river raise is definitely overplayed, you should just cryingcall expecting to lose.
