BB wins 103.14 BB

I open 2bb because he is unknown, and people generally dont defend blinds enough in stars NL50. I call because deep and playable hand, good odds? OOP too bad for this?

I float high flushes, and raise low flushes. When a a board pairs I repp what I have, I thought it is too weak to c/f with fd, and I cant c/c. Maybe check is the best and hope I see free card?

River if I would want to be balanced I should shove this because it is buttom of range, but on the other hand, I dont expect really reg to fold bvb on drawy board when all draws busted plus paired board.

Hey GingerKid,

Preflop open is standard with this hand imo. Facing a 3bet not the greatest but it's a small 3b and the stacks are deep, I would expect to be able to make this profitable even if not hugely so.

I think x/r flop is +EV but imo we can end up with some absolutely brutal turn/river situations when we make our 6-high flush. I would normally just x/c here with intention to bluff river if turn goes check check or play a smaller pot should we hit our dominated heart draw.

Turn is fine.

I agree with river comments. Should probably be a shove here. However if we expect opponent is never folding then exploitative x/f has to be the best option.

When x/c, x/x how large sizing should we be bluffing here?

Pot would be 29 on the river.

Anything from 15-20bb would be fine imo. We are not trying to fold opponent off strong made hand etc. So long as he feels priced out with A-high should be fine.
