    Default Bluffcatcher vs. 3-barrels from the BTN

    Villain is a total unknown (zoom) but stack size obviously suggests a fish or a shortstacker.

    Poker Stars, $0.10/$0.25 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players
    Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

    BTN: $13.08 (52.3 bb)
    SB: $31.37 (125.5 bb)
    Hero (BB): $31.47 (125.9 bb)
    UTG: $20.31 (81.2 bb)
    MP: $30.24 (121 bb)
    CO: $27.98 (111.9 bb)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with Q 9
    3 folds, BTN raises to $0.75, SB folds, Hero calls $0.50

    Flop: ($1.60) 2 6 Q (2 players)
    Hero checks, BTN bets $1.25, Hero calls $1.25

    Turn: ($4.10) 5 (2 players)
    Hero checks, BTN bets $2, Hero calls $2

    River: ($8.10) T (2 players)
    Hero checks, BTN bets $9.08 and is all-in

    Hero???

    Fold river. In general, I'd only look to bluff-catch with reads and a decent sample size, plus I'd need a better kicker.

    Not ever bluff catching a triple from an unknown at these stakes sounds like a solid strategy. Fold river.

    Fold or 3bet preflop imo.

    Yeah preflop is probably slightly bad. Stack size and lack of knowing anything makes this hand a biot too weak to defend to a 3x on my semi arbitrary scale of feel.

    So everyone seems to hate stationing this down.

    Given that, if we were the BTN, and let's say we brick a heart draw or 78, does everyone therefore like triple-barreling a lot on this runout?
