    Losing Prop Bets

    Default Top set, oop, monotone board, cbet size?

    No reads on any villains. No one has gotten out of line that I've noticed. I'm running at about 15/10/3.

    PokerStars 200NL FR

    I'm in the SB with and a $275 stack

    Folds to the CO who raises to $6 with about $250 behind

    Button calls with a full stack

    I raise $20 to $26 and am heads up to the flop vs. the CO.

    Flop: ($59)

    This is a cbet 100% of the time pending aggro reads on CO, so I lead out, but for how much? I was wondering about this being a great spot to overbet the flop.

    I'm putting Villain on: JJ, AQ, AK, AA, KK, and smaller under pairs looking to set. Cbetting gets folds from AK no spade and most of the time all of the underpairs unless they have a spade and is a total retard. I think villain has AK here most of the time and with a spade half of the time, which would give CO 36% equity if my math serves me correctly.

    How much are we betting on the frop?

    Bet pot for me...but I've never played these stakes.

    I bet pot most of the time but vary between 1/2 and full pot. I like mixing up my c-bets in 3b pots. I don't overbet here because I very rarely overbet and I certainly don't do it with a balanced range.

    I'm not betting full pot but if we bet $55 here we can shove any turn for pot. I wouldn't go lower than $50 though.

    Bet $45 and I don't see why it's necessary to set up a turn shove.

    Reasoning for betting pot: I don't want to get sucked out on.

    No, I bet pot because Villain has a SPR of 230:60 and will shove over a pot-sized bet with a range that we can call profitably against.

    Yeah, i'm not worried about getting sucked out on rather than I just want to get it in as soon as I possibly can. I just don't like the (possible) mental aspects of someone facing a pot-sized bet.

    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.
