Hey,

villain 54/23/3 over 42 hands
is this a nobrainer-Pot-Stackoff OTF, or are there some slightly more +EV lines, like betting smaller to suck him in / make him push a wider range OTF? Cause K or Pair+draw isn't folding anyways.

Boss, $0.25/$0.50 Pot Limit Omaha Cash, 5 Players
Poker Tools by CardRunners - Hand Details

CO: $99.38 (198.8 bb)
BTN: $64.57 (129.1 bb)
SB: $50.25 (100.5 bb)
Hero (BB): $55.20 (110.4 bb)
MP: $50 (100 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K 2 A A
MP raises to $1.43, CO raises to $3.23, 2 folds, Hero raises to $11.37, MP folds, CO calls $8.14

Flop: ($24.42) 6 K 7 (2 players)
Hero bets $24.42, CO folds

Hi,

the problem with making a smaller bet here is that you are then inducing hands to call, which is not a good thing that often here as you only have an overpair and tp. If you jam here, villain might fold hands like 6xxx that have equity vs you, which is a great result for us, as that hand can often make a correct call vs our range. And it's also better to win without showdown imo in these cases. It's more + EV i think if we have some fe here.

Basically a hand like QJT9 alredy has 30% vs your hand here. And these are the type of hands you want to fold, not find call otf.

Regards,

Skod
