This might be a bit tight but we have the worst Ax and on top of that I don't know what else he can play like this aside from Ax or a FH

Hi legand,

Aggro fish can spew like this but vs your average fish I think you played this fine.

The bet sizes could be smaller as you essentially have second pair here and you are targetting all weak hands. So even half pot is decent there and can even induce more.

This seems a bit counter-intuitive to me. I mean we're betting half pot because we aren't overly confident in our hand but in inducing we're running into more raises (that we intentionally induced ourselves). I don't feel that comfortable inducing in spots where there are a lot of better hands that could be raising us (admittedly alongside worse ones too, but even still).

Against fish we want to adjust our betsizes with our hands... the bigger the hand the more value we can get... the weaker the hand the less value we go for.

Fish don't adjust to these type of scenarios.

Inducing does not automatically mean inducing to raise... Most fish are passive so by inducing you induce them to make lighter calls.

IE: K2 looks much better for a fish vs a 1/2 bet than 2/3 bet or even 3/4

And you are targetting a much weaker range because by the river all Ax will either beat you or split with you.
