2pr best line

Results 1 to 4 of 4

    Default 2pr best line

    Here opp is 37/11/1.3

    now, I generally don't consider a player this to be making checkraises with draws, but even if they were to do this, the raise would be much bigger, not just a minraise. So if we assume that his minraise is either huge strength or just a bluff with like a small pair or perhaps a "see where i'm at with my AQ" type play - whats our best line to proceed?

    What's your line here on the flop? And below I posted what I did and is there any way I do not get it in on the turn there?

    Bet that mo*herfuckin turn!

    If you are 100% planning on calling a bet on a non diamond river after you check it back I see no reason not to bet this turn

    If he raises you woulda called a river bet anyways and gotten that money in, whatever, but that card is too juicy not to bluff at

    Reasonable aggressiveness can't be bad here

    I am stacking Top & Bottom all day long vs a 37/11 in BvB. I would just push the turn if I already had 40BB in this pot w/ 100BB eff. stacks. Villain looks shitty enough to call off w/ A-worse.

    Ok.

    I'm not saying that in general i fist pump with this type of hand and get it in.

    However, this guy isn't the greatest, loose etc, and sometimes he may pay me his stack here with something like AK or AQ, very rarely J8.

    The problem I have though is that I don't think this type of player is playing a str8 or flush draw this way too often, not a guy with AF of 1.3 over the sample size I had.

    So, if he's either got a monster like AJ, JJ etc that owns me, or he's got something like AK/AQ etc, then perhaps I am best checking this behind on the turn as the flush could scare him, and then if he checks the river make a nice value bet.

    I could also do a little pot control by just calling his minCR, and just bet a checked turn as well.
