I'm minraising pf because of the 50bb fish. My impression is that people perceive the mr as beeing light so i think i need to start balancing with strong hands because they are 3betting lighter.
This guy is a reg who was running like God ,24/18 with 8% btn vs ep/mp 3bet and i think a lot bigger since we are deep a bit + i minraised.

Flop i guess i can't call ,didn't really wanted to fold so i guess standard play?

Thx

Hi

Not sure why you even feel a need to min-raise. I guess these days people are just minraising from every position at NL500 but I think if people aren't overly active, and add the fact that a few guys are deep, you should probably just open 2.5-3bb.

Flop play really depends on his tendencies. If he doesn't barrel Turn too often then I think c/c is definitely an option, but c/r is preferred if there is a club on the Flop. Bad thing about c/c is that these days, people just double barrel any 2nd broadway card like a T/Q/A/K which amounts to 1/3 of the deck.

It could be fine though, if you are not perceived as someone who raises all that much.

Thanks.
