Playing big draws passively
I felt durty playing these draws soooo passive. I usually CR or b/3bet the flop here with the intention getting AI, but I'm trying to figure out when I'm best to make a hand before putting money in? On my last trip to Vegas I learned I over estimate fold equity too much & was learning how to get paid after making the hand rather than taking the short side of med-big draws.
Both of these hands feel like the fold equity was minimal due to villains nittyness & likely range and I felt I could get paid off pretty well if I hit my draw. Both villains were super tight over small samples. I joined the games after them so no real history and my image is solid if not tight. I ran 25/20/1.5 with A2S at 33% at that table. The 1.5 AF is measured after all the calling these hands so I probably looked more aggro in their HUDs at the time. I've shown nothing out of line yet.
Villain is 15/10/inf over 20 hands. As a tight cold caller I felt his range was limited to PPs, AJ+ & discounted SCs, Axs here. IMO, his interest by the turn shows he probably hit AK+ or there is a smaller chance he is betting a draw for which I have a couple of blockers. He has not 3bet so I can include a discounted QQ+, AK.

Looking back @ hand 2, since he limp/called I probably had a lot more FE than I thought, but his flop/turn actions make me feel like he flopped a monster. But the river makes me think he missed a draw. But would a 15/5 bluff?
