Villain is pretty loose overall.

Should I have bet on 4th, I wasn't really expecting him to fold anything?

The call on 5th is pretty bad?

I would've bet 4th but I'm not sure that would be the right play. If I was the villain I would bet on 4th because his check is screaming "I've got a high card" which seems to be confirmed when he bets on 5th, unless he is a "holdem slow player". Your equity is 32% if he has kings, 39% if he has four lows which makes it close so the call can't be that bad getting 2.75-1. You're only crushed if he has two pair which doesn't make since due to his check on 4th. Curiosity would make me call to get a read on his aggressiveness and I would fold 6th if I bricked.

Nice analysis on 5th street. Thanks.

I would still bet 4th street and the reason for that would be to have fold equity on later streets.
