Villain is unknown preflop we get the odds to defend. 3betting is another option. Flop I think we have fold equity and alot of good turn cards to barrel and equity too. Still donk betting against a potential fish would be much better option because he doesn't fold as much as a reg here. Betting the turn is probably wasting money against him. River I decided to underbet to get him out of missed FDs and str8 draws. Dont know if it's good play or not, might just induce him to bluff.

Hi tukioppilas62

Think about his range for bet/calling that flop. Jx, rarely Tx, draws. Draws are KQ/89 maybe Q9 and FDs.

The turn is a super blank so nothing really folds. The river is pretty bad because NFD got there, QK also got there so you are left with Q9 for a missed draw and some 89s. That's it. And of course he has the pairs.

So really I cannot see anything better folding.

So either bet big to try to get 1p to fold or not bet at all.

Yea, is giving up / calling if he gives us odds better on turn than betting?

against fish i c/c. against reg i like to c/c flop and c/r a ton of turns, blanks included :f_biggrin: if he checks behind it kinda sucks but we can bet small to fold out better highs and the occasional 88:d on the river.

if called on the turn mostly just giving up on the river, we improve sometimes + he should b/f a lot of his range on the turn so no need to get too spewy.

Turn ck/raise isn't terrible if you expect him to be more of a reg (unknown, full stack). Vs fish I always check/call there.
