    Wouldnt all your value hands just bet turn after he calls flop?

    I would rather bet river when he checks, dont see why he would b/f for 50 more after he bets 30 on the river.

    villain is 26/19/4.5 with 3bet 9.8%
    i have some history with him and I know he's very capable of double and triple barreling (cbet turn 64%, cbet riv 70%)

    this is why I played the hand this way, do you think this is optimal?

    opp 40/18/1.4 (steal 40%)
    do you think this line is OK?
    if we hit big on the river ie flush or JJJ do you lead or CR? being that opp is fishy I think leading river when we hit is best?

    with 4bet range 1.2%

    I'm certain I'm well ahead of the $49 fish here, I figured if I flat here it REALLY looks like I have a huge hand like KK/AA which is why I didn't reraise, if I just shove he's going to snap QQ/KK/AA right, how would you play this? should I call his shove because if HE had a monster wouldn't he just flat as well to keep me in?

    do you think this line is OK?
    if we hit big on the river ie flush or JJJ do you lead or CR? being that opp is fishy I think leading river when we hit is best?

    I thought the whole point of this thread was to post stuff thats probably std and not that deep, but which you'd still like a response of some sort to, even just a checkup that its really std.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    the top of your range is A9, your line overall is weak, and his line is non standard. i want to call.

    if he put me on a missed draw, wouldn't he just c/c ? you say my line is weak. i figure i have a good hand here, how am I supposed to make it seem a lot stronger? raising the turn is stupid imo, do I just bet near pot on the river because i'm really only getting paid by a weaker 9 ?

    when i said ur line was weak i meant that you havent played your hand in a way that would suggest you have a strong hand.

    as for the betsizing, i think a large river bet is as likely to get called by 66/88 as a smaller one given the board texture and your flop/turn line.

    his turn bet looks strong, it does not look like he is putting out a bet to see whether it gets called or raised. because of that i'm not calling a river bet, and we only have a Q/9 as potential outs if we are WA/WB which i think we are most of the time. his bluff freq is going to be low in this spot so id fold.

    i guess i have this issue with figuring that if my hand is stronger than opponents I want to make it cheap for them to call so i end up making a shitton of these 1/3 to 1/2 pot sized bets but I guess thinking players see that as strength rather than weakness a lot?

    you said I could easily fold turn here with Q9 as well, is that because you figure he often has 2pr+ here ?

    the most useful piece of bet sizing psychology i know is that weak and average players will play more straightforward and passive when you make large bets. when i have a medium strength hand (per ABCD theorem, Q9 is a "B" strength hand on this river), getting my opponent to play in this way is highly desirable.

    22/33/55/A4/A9/K9 seems like a reasonable range for SB, i just don't see him value betting the turn like this with worse.
