I was pretty torn between leading out and C/Ring, but I decided with the latter because of the number of players in the hand and my position. I see the logic in both, especially leading as you must do the betting yourself most of the time, but I thought this was a situation where C/Ring could get me more value.
UTG+2 limps, UTG+3 limps, MP limps, BTN limps, SB completes, Hero in BB checks option with 5
6
.
Flop: 4
7
8
(pot=$15)
SB checks, hero checks, UTG+2 bets 18, UTG+3 calls, MP folds, BTN calls, SB folds, Hero...?
UTG+2: 40s white male. Pretty sure he's a poker dealer from another casino. Playing pretty loose preflop but tighter post flop. Was making large pot sized bets like in this situation. Stack $180
UTG+3: 50s/60s white male. Table changed less than 20 min ago with his big stack. I saw him play one hand in which he raised preflop to 15, 1 caller. Flop A45r c/c. Turn 6 check villain bets 25 player calls. River 7 check villain checks it back and shows AA. Don't have a good read on him but doesn't seem splashy. Stack $800ish
BTN: 40s Asian male. Table changed over an hour ago. Pretty damn tight, been mostly folding preflop. Saw him limp once and raise once to take it down preflop. Stack $170
So, what sizing are people thinking to make our raise?
