[2NL] 77 OOP, BTN Raise.

Why though? Its exploiting his wide cbetting range he will dump all missed hands if he's not a complete lunatic. It's also a good board to c/r as it hits our BB flatting range more than his BTN range. If he calls we know we're behind nearly all the time and if he raises we fold.

No? You are turning a perfectly fine hand to c/c with into a bluff for absolutely no reason. If he's cbetting super wide and you really do think we can rep a hand why not just wait until we have complete air?

Ahhh this makes sense i think i get it. We will extract more value from c/c with our showdown value if he's cbetting really wide, but if we c/c he can barrell us off on turn and river so we lose our flop call?

So if we can rep a hand against a guy who cbets a tonne it's better to wait until we have complete air because we pick up value from a hand that otherwise we would have lost with? And we will make more in the long run picking off his bluffs with hands that have showdown value such as 77?

Yeah that sums it up pretty well.
