So I am sitting at this table watching these guys just going nuts with the worst hands sucking eachother out and whatnot. I have been at this table for 5+ rotations winning one decent pot while just being patient. On the flop I am thinking that the first villian has a weak jack, then the second guy I am next to positive he has hit two pair. I am wanting to extract as much as possible from these two and the flop feels safe to try and let them hang themselves. Then on the turn I am still sure that the villian is protecting garbage from his previous betting patterns. Then on the river, from previous hands, it now almost looks like one of them accidentally fell into a flush... I am posting this not because I am wondering how to protect my hand better, but how you would have tried to extract as much from them as possible.

I'd hammer the shit out of the turn, BB obviously wants to play for stacks, and there are too many river cards that can kill your action - any T or heart. Even with the three hearts out there, I might just shove the river, as it's more than possible that the blinds are only slowing down because they think you're very strong (calling two raises cold on two streets).

Could anyone give us a rough estimation as to the EV of shoving the turn and stacking BB (and SB probably folding) rather than calling and shutting down IF a scarecard hits?

Listen to my music

Yes, looking back on it, I am thinking that moving in would have been a better idea with the draws on the turn. At the time I was thinking that I didnt want to lose the SB though.
