SB checks, Hero ?

Hand: 3rd pair, slightly ahead of his flatting range
Board: kinda drawy, so if I bet I should bet big
Villain: flats a lot, has a very wide range, nitty c/raise, but also doesn't fold a lot to cbets.

bet/fold 0.60? or check back for a delayed cbet?

Hey Outspan,

Btw this whole "bet big when the board is drawy" thing is a total myth. Not sure how it permeated general consensus so hard. Perhaps because on a lot of drawy boards the correct option is to bet large, but not always the case.

Here we have a 77's and are probably better off once again picking a neutral sizing. We are unexploitable with this type of holding. If villain starts folding too much we make profit, if he starts calling too much we just start extracting thin value with our pair.

I.e, we are essentially bluffing when we cbet, but given our holding it's really not a big deal if we get called.
