I have been pretty active but have slowed some since bubble burst. Havent show anything down since getting it all in otf with the A high flush draw with overs against the J high flush draw and holding for massive pot. Not sure if villians were paying attn to that hand but it is the reason I take the line I do. First flatter has been defending his blinds a ton showing down 86o and T2o. 2nd guy getting sick odds so he should be wide as well.

Thoughts on all streets please.

I bet flop.

His weird blocking bet into two people ott makes me want to raise to 5555 or something; as played I guess he could have K otr and it's hard to see him calling with worse, so checking behind seems fine even though I feel like you have the best hand a ton of the time.

Edit: oh, and pre is good obv.

I just bet the flop with no plans on folding
as played may go a bit more on turn
I may bet/fold small on river but that may be wrong as we really can't get value from much

Whee ssnyc agrees with me! I feel validated.

i dont hate to check the flop here. the problem is that u wont get it in great here if u get it in otf so checking is fine. its def not terrible to get it in here but given ur image and the table dynamics i think u dont have enough fe in that spot. id check back otr, tho i really dont have any idea wether thats the best play tbh.

NH I liike checking back the flop and taking a free card especially after playing a FD really aggro earlier. Def betting any turn if checked to me again and raise is good. Checking back the river is standard I think.

As described I think it's likely one or both of them got a piece of this flop and semibluffing won't be that successful

I bet flop but checking behind seems ok.

I would for sure raise more on the turn, you should bet enough to set up a natural river shove and your raise doesn't do that. So I would go to like 6k on the tun.

I agree turn should be larger. At the time his lead just felt so weak and so I didnt want to lose him. As far as checking back otf, I wanted to play it different from the hand before and I wouldnt love having to get it in otf.

Betsizing mistakes are often far more apparent after the hand/decision than at the time

fwiw i'd go about 3800 OTF planning on bombing any turn if one of them calls, might take a free card if they both call unless turn's like a K or possibly a Q. think i'd check back a 9 though.
if we get CR'd life sucks though.

and i'd check river too.

agree with most of this. definately bet the flop, river is close, you had another hand with the qh a little while back where i said check river, hand was a little different though, i dont mind a betsmall/fold here otr at all

the problem here is that the Q and J are accounted for and our hand looks exactly like what it is...

just not sure what he can call with and who wants to face a kamikaze bluff
