Hello,

Thoughts about this check/raise ? was it too big ?

Seat 4 is the button
Seat 1: Player1 ( $40.00 USD ) - VPIP: 36, PFR: 16, 3B: 0, AF: 3,9, Hands: 183
Seat 2: Player2 ( $21.30 USD ) - VPIP: 43, PFR: 19, 3B: 0, AF: 4,0, Hands: 37
Seat 4: Player4 ( $50.95 USD ) - VPIP: 33, PFR: 17, 3B: 0, AF: 3,0, Hands: 12
Seat 6: Hero ( $49.50 USD ) - VPIP: 14, PFR: 9, 3B: 3, AF: 1,7, Hands: 183

Preflop: Hero is SB with K♥: A♦:
CO raises to $1, BTN calls $1, Hero raises to $4.50, 2 folds, BTN calls $3.50

Flop: ($10.50) 5♥: K♠: T♣: (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $3.85, Hero raises to $12.69, BTN calls $8.84

Turn: ($35.88) 6♦: (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN checks

River: ($35.88) T♠: (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $33.76, Hero folds

Results:

Spoiler

$35.88 pot ($0.75 rake)
Final Board: 5♥: K♠: T♣: 6♦: T♠:
Hero mucked K♥: A♦: and lost (-$17.19 net)
BTN mucked and won $35.13 ($17.94 net)

Villain looks a little bit passive so far, but check/raise isn't to big with in mind he's betting pretty small. Most of the time I would Cbet against him. You don't want to give him a free card and you could miss some value. Turn could be a Cbet for thin value and protection as well with the intention to shove a blank river card.

Cheers,

I will c-bet 80%, then turn bet 80% for value.

I'm curious, plan worked, you x/r flop, Why you didn't bet on the turn? Pot is already $35 you only have $32. This is already a good jam spot.

I bet, bet, bet fold.

As player I think that bet fold >> check fold >> check call >>>>>> check raise
