Stacks:
UTG ($3.02)
UTG+1 ($2)
Hero ($16.77)
MP2 ($12.95)
CO ($3.07)
BTN ($2.93)
SB ($12.08)
BB ($4.43)

Pre-Flop: ($0.07, 8 players) Hero is MP1
2 folds, Hero raises to $0.20 ($16.57), 2 folds, BTN calls $0.20 ($2.73), 1 fold, BB calls $0.15 ($4.23)

btn 34/17, bb is a 16/7 who loves calling my raises with Broadway type hands and likes leading with good hands (like TP on a dry board)

Flop: ($0.62, 3 players)
BB checks ($4.23), Hero bets $0.30 ($16.27), BTN folds ($2.73), BB calls $0.30 ($3.93)

nuts! ok pot building is absolutely necessary...question is how.

villains have 55bbs and 85bbs before flop action. hero bets half pot

thoughts:
1) if the pot stays multiway, they arent so deep that ill have trouble lowering the spr
2) bb is unlikely to have a set imo, and sets will raise a fair amount of the time cuz they hate seeing spades fall. They have 7 outs to improve on the turn so i should stay ahead alot even if they do end up calling with sets
3) Tx, the Js and the Qs likely fold to larger bets. Ks never folds.

So basically im thinking that i can bet small in order to keep worse hands in with little risk, meanwhile those worse hands have a small chance of improving to beat me


Turn: ($1.22, 2 players)
BB checks ($3.93), Hero bets $0.75 ($15.52), BB calls $0.75 ($3.18)

bad card, but i really doubt the bb plays a set this way. his range is mainly flush draws, tx, and like JJ/QQ sometimes. maybe bet larger...but i really dont want him to fold these marginal hands that have little chance to improve. i guess Tx has like 10 outs :/

River: ($2.72, 2 players)
BB checks ($3.18), Hero bets $3.20 ($12.32) ...

really doubt he has a nut hand now...and i feel the only hands left are either calling any bet or folding...so overbet.

thoughts?
