you're price in here, you have to call turn. Might as well shove flop if he only has $8 left.

Bet flop a little bigger, make it like .65 and shove over his raise. You are a favorite over almost everything. When you brick the turn your equity drops a lot. Get it in when your the most ahead, and you always have fold equity.

You're right about betting bigger. But this guy had been raising weakness like 90% of the time. Also every time I bet 2/3 of the pot he was reading it as weakness.... I actually was trying to induce the raise. I didn't spend a lot of time considering, but I felt like .65 was too much...

I'm probably wheedling a lot about very little, but it was a moral victory.

this isnt necessarily true. when i have a hand like this i assume my equity is stable across streets and usually aim to make the play that creates the most FE. sometimes a jam gets called a lot lighter than if u were to apply the hammer. like yeah, u are a favorite over a pair, but u are only gonna win the pot like a little over half the time when called by a pair ... if u can make them call a turn bet and fold to a river shove u gain a lot more by winning the turn bet 100% of the time.

Isnt this like the opposite of stable equity?

Your equity drastically reduces (or increases) on each street doesnt it?

yeah obv thats true, but what im doing is just on the flop assuming im gonna win the pot outright ~50% of the time by making the best hand, so instead of just jamming it in and getting called frequently by a bluff catcher that assumes im on a draw, what ill do instead is determine based on my opponent's tendencies and recent history, which line is going to produce the most fold equity over the course of 3-5th street. since u r rewarded much more for winning the pot 100% of the time when he folds rather than jsut the ~50% of the time u end up making the best hand. obviously if i improve on the turn i might change my plan, but w/ a hand like this my goal is generally to make the dude fold when i have ace high.
