    Default 50NL fishsticks

    UTG is running 60-11, BTN is 52-3ish both over just a few orbits so I'm without reads here. So far it seems to be the best table ever, action's been really fishy with a bunch of loose limp callers. I get the fish pan ready and get this hand:



    UTG: $74.26
    MP: $48.25
    CO: $58.65
    BTN: $61.00
    SB: $71.10
    Hero (BB): $53.95

    Pre Flop: ($0.75) Hero is BB with J 9
    UTG calls $0.50, 2 folds, BTN raises to $1.00, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.50, UTG calls $0.50

    Flop: ($3.25) T J 9 (3 players)
    Hero checks, UTG bets $0.50, BTN raises to $1.00, Hero raises to $5.00, UTG calls $4.50, BTN calls $4

    Turn: ($18.25) 3 (3 players)
    Hero bets $14.50, UTG raises to $29.00, BTN folds, Hero: What do?

    id rather lead flop...

    would you go for stacks on this flop if raised?

    I'd lead flop as well, and re-evaluate if raised.

    Not folding, but potentially calling.

    Lighting sweet moneys on fire.
    I don't hate checking flop. Odds are pretty high that one of them will bet. I'd probably still lead though.

    I'd fold to turn raise.

    easy ship on the turn, i've seen fish take this line with KK. it appears he is trying to rep a straight, but it's at least as likely he has KJ/AJ/combo draw

    I don't know.. I mean yes sure sometimes they might raise with KK here, but large majority of the time they will just call again.

    Turn min-raise is mega scary to me. I'd lean towards folding.

    Nice table selection.

    I think you have to put the rest in on the turn since all in is basically a call. I'm not happy about it, but I think folding is a mistake. Don't be too confident in your ability to read fishes hands, they surprise you too much.

    I'd lead the flop and fold to the turn raise, I really don't think he has many semibluffs in his range. Sure sometimes he has J5s raising for info lol, but not often enough IMO
