    Default Yay-Yay

    Under what conditions do you make this play and why? I’ve mentioned several times that I play overpairs weakly a whole lot… But I’m curious how this looks. I’ll explain my reasoning for the fold later (not like it's rocket science or anything...). But my question (looking at the hand on paper) is why would I ever fold here?

    Because with the overbet and overcall you're probably lookin' at 2 pair.

    I still c-bet the flop tho. ~$14

    given the flop, call the turn because your hand is so under represented

    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.

    I'd def bet flop. As played, no way you can fold turn.

    This is what I was going to say but given the way the hand played out arent we also going to be facing probably a sizable river bet without really knowing where we are at and aren't there going to be about 23348 scare cards? I dunno, I still tend to agree with you here about calling the turn but I think as played it is going to put us in a weird river spot. I like a flop bet still.
