If this is final table I would check pre, since the 2,65 bb you can win by shove stealing ain't worth enough compared to getting knocked out if you get called and lose a flip.

If this ain't final table I would shove since it's pretty weak for CO and BU to be limping, and we don't have icm concidarations like if we were on the final table.

As played bet 2,5 bb on the flop and shove the turn.

I would just shove this pre flop, there are actually 3.65BB in the pot, so its absolutely worth doing imo.

Ok its likely that CO has a decent hand but he has to consider his calling range versus not just you but BU who also limped.

As played, can either check it down or maybe make a small value bet on the river. The only problem with the value bet is that if he shoves you are in a real tough spot and most likely losing.

I dont see any benefit in shoving the turn, only getting called if you are already beaten.

From the calling range I expect him to have we will have about 55% equity on the turn, so it ain't that bad to shove imo. obv we can decrease the variance by checking, and the valuebet a blank river.

But I def prefer shoving turn compared to valuebetting the river, on a four card fd he is not likely to call a weaker flush or a Kx imo.

Hey Adam!

Check pre is fine. I would give them chance to bluff on this super dry board. So I ch/c the flop.
Turn I'm betting -> you still get value of midpairs + :heart:, overcard + :heart: and 1-2 worse kx combinations!

As played river is an easy valuebet against hits and lower flushes!

Greets,
Tiltberger
