I would just Cbet all streets with a over pair against a unknown on NL2.
That would end in a all-inn on the river. Without any info on villain it's really tough to get away of a over pair.

Cheers,

Agreed just bet the turn and shove most rivers if turn gets raised it's not great be were committed and should be a profitable call still vs most ranges.

Against UTG I would be more careful but against cold caller which I assume is weaker player you have open highway for triple barrel and then reload. I will add that its important to realize that often when you have hand that you dont plan to fold then its better to just bet yourself as usually calling range is looser than betting range.

I probably I will try to put him all in on the flop.Just to be shur he will fold.The best way to not allow him to make the better hand.

Hi krasipetrov2,
Welcome to PokerStrategy.com :welcome:

I do that too sometimes, but the downside of the turn shove is that a lot of weaker hands fold that might otherwise call.

I hope you enjoy your time at PokerStrategy.com -- be sure to look around especially at bonus offers and the free money offers.

All the best,
VS

Shoving flop will cost you a lot of value i think or villain is a calling station that can call any random 9x hand.

+1, Unless we have the bluff equity, when villain could have possible draws and missed them. Expecially when you dont have the blockers.
