I would bet the flop to like 12c against 2 players for value and protection.
Then you get the money better in on the river if you bet the turn still 2/3 pot.

Thanks for taking the time. Yes, my turn and river decisions, as well as bet sizing, is something I'm working on now, keeping in mind that the size of my flop bet will in turn determine where we're going with the rest of the hand. I was cbetting like 88% in that session but toned it down to about 57% tonight and it was much better. Of course, this is table dependent. I do change up my cbets from half to 2/3's and even pot size depending upon a number of factors, as well.

Here's one from earlier where I am contending with the exact situation I'm talking about. I desperately wanted this guy's stack, too. He was a big fish.

Go with a bigger bet otf

At the risk of sounding like a parrot: Bet bigger on the flop.

Reasons:

• With a monster, the plan is to get all in by the river without overbetting on any street. The flop is where the bet can be percentagewise the biggest and still get called.
• There is an A on the flop. People play A. Hence they'll call bigger bets than usual.

Hand 1

Yep bigger flop and turn if villain has a draw or an ace hes not folding those streets very often. Then decide which rivers you think are safe to jam.

Hand 2

25/21 isn't a fish hes a Tag and is tight with his 3betting albeit a small sample. I wouldn't over bet the turn id make a usual size turn bet. I think 1/2p is fine on the turn possibly a little bigger . But i wouldn't want to discourage all his worse Jx and flush draws calling me, and possibly some hands like 99 we get another street of value form.

Thank you very much for the feedback, guys. I have to say, I'm impressed. I just created a thread to test my HUD converter on this site and boom - I'm getting better advice and information than I've gotten anywhere else that fast lol.

I actually got a few hours of sleep and came down to the PC here with the intention of buying your Gold sub, as it is clearly the best training package out there for someone in the micros/smalls. After seeing this thread, I'm not waiting another minute. I'm going to get my card and sign up for the Gold!

This is extremely helpful for me. Thank you.

Hand 1 - cbet bigger , pot is mw and you should get it in by the river.
Hand 2 - Do not overbet turn. Bet normal size. And do not bother if you do not stack him. Most of the times you won't.

I wouldn’t bet the turn maximum 20c. No need to bet so big against a TAG like him and if he’s shoving you need to fold your top pair and nut flush draw as well.

No way would you GII here with TPTK and the NFD?

Not sure what you mean with GII here. That makes it tough to answer this
