Hey guys,

BB: villain was 28/19 over 36 hands, 6% 3bet overall.

Not sure if we can nit it up and fold pre since villain seems more on the passive side. I personally don't like it since sample is still too low.

On flop, I like to bet my gutshot+overs vs unknown since a lot of people check/fold way too often. I guess a bet is standard here. Ott, we hit the J. Not sure if bet or check is best here. In game, I decided villain has quite a bit of Tx so we could bet for value profitably. I think a riverbet is too light here.

So I'm mostly unsure about turn action. Thoughts?

Hey DeLau,

I think folding preflop here is totally fine. Not the greatest hand to hold in a 3bet pot, plus villain's 3bet is quite large. Not a super bad defend or anything though.

Would bet flop here as a bluff.

Turn is close, we don't necessarily want to check back and give free river cards, on the other hand betting large for value is too thin. At the risk of making my holding transparent I would just bet a really small sizing on the turn, perhaps $18-20.

If I had to choose between checking or betting large, I would probably check.
