Hi,

need opinion on this hand. Villain is a fish, we played on the same table for a while, he is ready to shove on flush draw, top pair, middle pair, anything. This is the reason why I shoved on the turn.I took the chances because I had overpair+OESD.

How is this situation best played usually? Should I just call the raise or show aggression?

Thanks

Hi Crixus,

Preflop: looks fine

Flop: looks fine

Turn: If villain is indeed ready to get the money in light our line is not terrible however after ck/call flop and donk/3-bet I can't expect him to have too much junk in his range.

I'd say that he has at best for us pair+draw, 2p, straight, sets.

So my preferred line would be to just call turn and play river. This way you also give him, a small chance, to bluff.
