interesting HU hand

    Default interesting HU hand

    Villain is pretty passive. He is 3 betting relatively often, I would guess about 7%. His 3 bet range is very polarized, either pairs, strong ace or complete junk like T5o. He very rarely raises me on the flop and I have seen him call with OESDs a lot. I have not seen him showdown chasing a flush draw but I am sure he just calls with those also.

    Do you guys like raising the turn here?

    Why not raise the turn? You're essentially freerolling if he also has an 8. I don't think he donks a fd on the turn. I'd try to get it in on the turn for sure. I'd love to see 99 here.

    actually i lie, i think with my backdoor club draw turn is a call.

    I think your right, that villain could call a raise with a lot of 2 pairish hands or a straight. I think by min raising the river I can fold to a push.
