Villain is a very loose reg, 26/20 fold to 3bet 0/5 times, fold to cbet flop 3/9, turn 0/2, river 0/2.

Is my line okay here, I think villain floats the flop w. ton of backdoordraws, so we bet for thin value. On turn we can let him bet w. his floats and by calling we perceived to have the jack and villain has to give up on river most of the time. Taking x/call lines would encourage more bluffs from the flop and make our range look weaker and I think we get the max. value by taking this line (letting villain polarizes his range by betting the turn and is very bluffheavy).

I agree with your line In this particular spot I can only see villain holding A3s or pocket 44s or 33(that's probly checking the turn for slow play) in the value range, jx 55-TT check back the turn for pot control, also the bet is less then half pot on the turn witch indicates air, so I agree his range is more bluff heavy but I wouldn't go crazy in this spot need to be pretty selective Well played :f_thumbsup:

Why exactly he would check all those hands on turn?

I like his betsizing.

Hi tuki,

I think you played this fine.

Betting turn and shoving river gets a bit too costly on such a board and stations wont fold much.

Letting him bet the turn with all his floats is generally fine.

@gasheks well I guess it depends on what kind of player he is, but mostly people check for pot control, and allow hands like AQ,KQ,AKAT 89s to bluff the river

With a hand like TT-55 villain should ch/back or bet small for protection. Like 5-6 usd. 1/2 pot is terrible sizing for those hands and he just value towns himself against standard ranges.

Considering the 1/2 pot sizing villain end's up having realy few value hands and a ton of air and with our x/call we are perceived to have a jack pretty much always. He probably doesn't expect us to x/call w. acehighs, and he doesn't expect us to be cbetting middlepairs and ever taking this line with them, which is why he ends up giving up the river with a ton of air.
