Hi,

[F] Cbet with TP

[T] Is a blank, so bet again to extract from worse Ax and draws.

[R] Just fold? he is either bluffing or having a flush. I don't like my call here.

Thanks

Hi all,

I bet smaller on both flop and turn as a default because I expect more Ax preflop and less flushdraws. As played I wouldn't fold river for such a small shove. If we'd bet smaller on flop/turn, we can fold the river (which is definitely not a reason for the smaller bets).

Can we not over-bet all-in on the turn?

I can see a lot of hands calling us that we beat?

I think that's a symptom of over-protecting our hand. It causes us to lose value in the long run against their range for the small advantage of getting us sucked out on less often. It is definitely not a good option, unless we have the specific read villain will not fold his flushdraws on the turn vs our overbet.
