$4/$8 LHE 9 handed, Kill Pot
Kill is UTG
The game has been playing very loose (typical $4/$8 LHE) with a mixture of loose/passive and loose/aggressive players. UTG in this hand had been playing literally every pot, floating a lot, making random 2 pair hands and winning at showdown. He's managed to tilt several of the players in the game and he's playing every hand to "show everyone this game is just luck". UTG+1 is one of the few players at the table open-limping w/ less than 50% of his hands. He's probably open-limping about 40% and betting/raising when he makes a hand.

I think I Bet and Call Down facing a C/R. I expect UTG+1 to just lead at least some of his Jx+ hands here on the turn given how he played the flop.

UTG+1's B/3-b on the flop is kinda scary, depending on the opponent we might want to slow down and not cap the flop, but capping the flop is probably fine without more of a read to go on.

Also, LOL at the two players over limping and folding for more one bet preflop.

I think the flop cap might be a spew, most of these guys are super passive and that's a "scary" flop, like they might not even raise 2 pair because they are worried about straights. As played I would bet and check the river but you can probably safely fold to a CR since they have a straight or boat nearly always I'd say.

Thanks for the help Slide & DD.
