    Default Advice on getting max value

    Rush Poker FT 50NL SB is a 20/9 player over 400 hands.
    Hero (Button) ($55.05)
    SB ($83.95)
    BB ($106.65)
    UTG ($20.45)
    MP ($221.55)
    CO ($25.90)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with ,
    3 folds, Hero bets $1.50, SB calls $1.25, 1 fold

    Flop: ($3.50) 3c: (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero checks

    Turn: ($3.50) (2 players)
    SB bets $3.50, Hero calls $3.50

    River: ($10.50) (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $15, 1 fold

    Total pot: $10.50 | Rake: $0.50

    Range for flop is estimated as pretty tight. Stats show very tight and being OOP, I gave him PP 77 and up suited connectors of J10 and up. Based on his lead on the turn, Im thinking he has the A of clubs possibly with K or J. If so, I think he calls my overbet on river. He did not. Should I reraise the turn and how much on the river? Thanks

    Lighting sweet moneys on fire.
    Don't post results. Why no cbet?

    I'm torn between raising and calling turn. If he bets less than full pot I would def raise. River overbet probably isn't optimal vs his range of mostly one pair hands and air. Much more likely that he is going to spew over a standard sized bet.

    or a ghey bet of some kind may get his air to do sth crazy? what you think of betting 2$ here? maybe we need reads that he can spazz b4 we do this....

    @OP, your turn range is way too tight, he can do this w/atc imo, when we get to the river his range is mostly just air.

    idk how you can ever ckbk this flop though.

    I'd bet flop almost always, raise turn unless I thought he was bluff happy and betting pot wide on turn, and make a standard'ish size bet on river 3/4 pot.

    Once he checks river, he's clearly not that strong. Overbet would only work with a very suspicious hero-caller type.

    Cbet flop and as played I would bet something like 7-7.5 on river (I don't like overbetting for reasons, which p4s said - you need very good read for overbet in this situation, but I think it will almost never work. If you miss flop you would probably cbet and then you call turn pot bet, and want to overbet river - what air can you have?? I think he can't call overbet, unless its weirdly played cooler and this cooler will raise normal sized bet for sure)

    - on the turn I like raising - something like 8.5-9.5

    Never read any stickies or announcements
    Advice on getting max value
    - c-bet flops with uber draws

    - figure on raising the turn with the nuts when you have over 15 PSBs behind

    - not a huge fan of the river

    just do the exact opposite of everything you did and you'll be fine.


    seriously though, bet flop, bet/raise turn etc... Even if his range is incredibly tight we want to build a big pot with our huge hand so we can get stacks in on later streets.
    Family Cruise IMO
