Hi!

i dont have too many hands on villain, i know he's a winning loose reg, probably not as loose as his stats look on this hud, given its fullring.

his range should be pretty tight, mostly comprised by AK, JJ QQ and some slowplays of KK - AA. If he's very looser he might have AQ and TT too, maybe some suited conectors (? but i dont think so.

Betting the flop doesn't archieve much , im not sure if i should just xf or xc once.

On the turn my hand has more equity and he bets. firstly, should i just bet smallish myself mostly as a blocking bet, just to "make sure" that my hand gets to see the river. I have 26% pot odds against his turn sizing. My hand against a range of QQ+ has 21% equity, if he has AQ and he bets it i have 23% equity, and i dont include AK in his range because he probably just checks back again. What should i do here?

Hey 6805alefito,

Cold 4b is ok but can cause some problems at this limit if our cold-4b range is perceived to be very tight.

Hand is certainly strong enough to think about x/c flop - my preferred line with the back door is to cbet setting up a turn shove for any spade - so I'd just play bet/shove on this particular runout.
