    Default 25nl Zoom: weak flush draw rivers effective nuts on straight board

    Pre- seems a bit loose, but we’re deep-ish, villain is a barrelly reg and there are a couple of 35/5 types behind so I’m assuming we’re okay here?

    Do we have enough fold equity on the flop to raise here? Sizing?

    In hindsight, I think turn is a clear bet if villain is assuming I’m on an AXcc draw. I'd bet all of my sets here, 76s and Ax as I think villain is capped here at overpairs (and rarely AA).

    River sizing? Villain is unlikely to think I have much 7x in my range and assume we are both playing the board so I think I should go pretty big here?

    I would fold pre.

    Don't like the flop raise, we have loads of equity and are risking being blown off it. Just flat and see the turn, I'm not sure what you're expecting villain to fold on that flop?

    Turn, as you said, you kinda have to bet this after you have raised the flop.

    River is one of those spots where I might go a little weird and raise to something like $11.63 and hope he thinks I'm trying to steal it.
    Currently grinding live cash games. Life is good.

    How tight is UTG?

    Are the bad players in the blinds? If the bad player is on the button, then it's not ideal to call. I'd like to at least have position postflop on the bad players.

    Flop raise I don't get. Just call, you have position.

    Turn check back is fine. I think his b/c range on the flop has lots of Ax in it.

    River I'd blast it to $10-11ish.

    agreed w/ turn ck back. i'd only raise flop if villain fold overpairs otherwise there's no point. i'd shove river/ got snapped called here by lots hoping for a chop.
