2/4HU - Reading into dem betsizes

Villain is playing 69% of buttons, folding flop 42%, turn 33%

I feel like at best he's got 87,97 here, but he's more weighted towards flush draws. What do we think of our play?

Looks like we turned what we had into a bluff...that only gets the nuts to "pay off."

...Wait this is OMAHA???

I like it. Line is perfectly consistent with KK, and he probably doesn't think you're just barreling air on this board, so in his mind you have to have something like that which you're turning into a bluff. And enough behind for the bluff to work, imo.

Re: 2/4HU - Reading into dem betsizes

Really, really player dependent. Within your description, it could be anywhere from good to completely god-awful. You need to be pretty sure on which one if you're going to throw this many chips in.

Don't like your betsizing preflop, on the flop, or on the turn.

River is very opponent/flow dependent like iggy said.

I just feel people don't usually fold after choosing such bet-size.

I like your play on the river based on villain's river sizing.

Bad river bluff spot imo, how many boat combos do you really have?

River isn't bad,if you know villian well enough. Some vilians are snap calling flushes here, others are snap folding. Sooo player dependent, i'm def not making this move if i don't have a good idea of how reacts here.

There is big difference between betting 22 or full pot rather than 17.6 vs a floaty villain.
