Hey folks was playing a cash game before a tournament (which I never do but decided to), and it had gone 3 or 4 orbits when I got this hand, this is how it went down.
V very loose losing lots of chips calling with air and low pair, folding 3/4 times after 2 or 3 bets in all positions.
Hero very tight image, has played 2 hands in the 3.5 orbits, one of these hands showed QQ at showdown, the second showed KJs at showdown with 2 pair.
Not played in a hand against V, I like to play super tight till I find the fish, sometimes it’s easy, sometimes the fish lurk in the murk.
1/2 NL hold’em
full table of 9 @Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood FL.
SB $130
BB $125
UTG $85
Hero $135
MP $140
MP+1 $65
HJ $390
CO $210
BTN $100
Pre-Flop action
BTN Straddled, 3 Folds Hero KQraises to $10, 4 folds BTN calls
Flop: 48J
Hero bets $15 BTN calls
Turn: 2
Hero bets $25 BTN calls
River: 9
Hero Checks, BTN Checks
What Kind of hand range do we get on the V here? Does my betting look small, big or right? Any other advice?
If I won could I have gotten more chips, If I lost could I have done anything different?

I agree. Where I play the $1/$2 straddle is $5 and if the regular open is $7-$12 the straddle open is $12-$17… Essentially adding the full $5 in to whatever you’d open with. $10 is the same as a limp with a straddle on. If 1-2+ limp the straddle then I wouldn’t open for less than $17-$20.
