fold, MP raises to $0.17, CO raises to $0.45, fold, Hero ???

Probably a standard spot but wasn't sure so posted it.

I have to 4bet here right?

3bet of 21?? This guy is clearly playing 3b or fold.

Easiest 4b in life.

lol beautifully put

How much do you guys make your 4b here? 1.10?

If he's playing 3b or fold, then he probably has a pretty balanced range.

I don't know how much we'd love being flatted OOP here, so I might make it a bit bigger than usual, maybe $1.25 since we're OOP.

Is that not a bit small?

I forgot there is some dead money from the CO as well, so yes, it should probably be a bit bigger.

Depends on our overall game plan I suppose.

We're a couple seats to the left of a crazy aggro 3betting 21%. I'd like to have a 4b bluffing range vs this guy, so I don't want to have to bluff too big.

I'd 4b to like $1.30

let's go onto the next action/street, even if you just called
