    1. b/f turn > c/c > c/r. you are wa/wb when you check and villain bets

    2. standard two barrel spot, I'd only fire three if you know he will fold AT and other weak Ax

    3. I like it a lot

    4. this is a good three barrel spot as well as villain has a lot of pair+draw hands in his range. bet a little under half pot and shove any river that isn't a Q/J/7

    5. easy b/f in today's nitty 50nl games

    6. I think I'd c/f turn, maybe b/f small if you think he won't raise to get value from his floats with one club.

    7. on a paired flop with these stack sizes I'd usually cbet half pot on the flop. villain isn't changing his calling range when you bet the flop bigger, plus it lowers your fold equity when you hit that gin river

    I definitely do typically bet/fold turn. My only reasoning for thinking about check/raising is because of his low fold to cbet %, leaving him with more floats that usual, that I felt check/raising against would be best.

    Also, I think a fair number of players bet/fold marginal hands on the turn here that they probably shouldn't. Bet/folding the turn with Tx, underpairs, etc to protect his equity, and potentially bluff the river. Hands that he might call the turn with, and win at showdown (unless I shove river), but will bet/fold turn.

    Obviously I don't really rep much though.


    4. this is a good three barrel spot as well as villain has a lot of pair+draw hands in his range. bet a little under half pot and shove any river that isn't a Q/J/7

    Yeah was torn between your line or check/raising. Still not exactly sure which is best.


    6. I think I'd c/f turn, maybe b/f small if you think he won't raise to get value from his floats with one club.

    If we assume he's floating flop often, as I suspect this player is, wouldn't I be check/folding the turn or river very frequently? Any club, overs, etc. Effectively making his frequent flop floats correct?

    Yeah should have went smaller on flop. Didn't realize my sizing was large at the time. Left me with much less than I would have liked for shoving the river.
