Re: Renton

This board is a game of chicken. He's going to bet here like 10000000000000000000% of the time until you give him cause not to. The biggest question here is how big we're going to c/r. A small c/r is going to get a wider range to peel. A bigger c/r has less value if he's folding to any c/r but will make it difficult for him to peel light.

It's spots like that where reads = profit. Also you need to keep ahead of the curve and change up the game on him once he catches on to what you're doing. c/r here a couple times, then donk, then c/c donk with some folds thrown in so you're not a slot machine. Confuse him into just giving up his air because he can't put you on shit.

Re: Instant Aces

I like a 3-bet here pre-flop. It will buy us fold equity on high card boards and set-up our value 3-bets.

On the turn I would bet more money to balance out my float range. Also, we want to play a big pot here, so force him to put a lot of money in the middle to play back.

On the river I see no reason to put him on a flush. It's probably a medium pair hand that wants to see a showdown. Value town it with like a 1/2 to 1/3ish pot bet and give him his showdown.
