This hand was played with about >35 players left.

Facing villain who opened in CO, were both sitting with >30 BB stacks and BB has been calling with any hand when getting good Pot Odds.

I decide to flat K8s, is this a spot where 3B to isolate is ideal? or better to flat or fold consider SB has push/fold stack?

Flop, checks around to me I decide to bet with bottom pair. Initial aggressor has been CB 73% of the time and has decided to check this indicating weakness to me. Comments on merits of betting or checking here? Comments on bet sizing??

Turn, after initial aggressor calls I have him on range mostly with Jx hands, maybe some weak Qx hands, TK is also a possiblity. He could also possibly have checked sets and or 9T. Turn is the 2 spades and he checks again, any value here in betting or should we hope to check and reassess on river? I decide to bet little over 1/3 pot and he flats again, at this point I don't see him having any sets but a range consisting of hands like JK, JT, J9, and Qx hands.

River pairs the the board, and is checked again by villain. From my betting patterns I could have strong Qx, like QK QT. I could also have a set with 88s and 9T is also likely to be in my range. I feel like I am in this situation many times where I am confused as to what the sizing for this bet should be. A lot of the time I am putting my opponents all in. In this situation would you ever bet small (maybe 1/5 - 1/3 pot)?? or is this a standard shove by how the hand was played on previous streets??

22 pr seems a little on the high side, he should be r/f often from the HJ pre. I think 3betting is good here, proly 3b>fold>flat.. sucks sb has 8bb but its pretty w/e and I think i still pull the trigger anyway

14,300/f pre

as played I would check along otf, dont think we are value betting or bluffing against enough combos to justify a bet, just check behind and hope we bink, if not then maybe bet if it gets checked to us again on a good card.

not sure turn and riv because I dont think I would ever get into that spot as played with K8s

3b pre

Check back flop.

As played otr check back ott - that card doesn't change anything. I would check back then. If I want to show some heart then shoving otr might be good if we can get him to fold a J or a Q. But I'm not sure if he will nor do I think that our line would convince him so.

So as we can see... 3b really is the best play because even with position versus a wide range this hand is hard to play. When we three bet pre he's only going to continue - 4b or call - with a very narrow range.

3b 30 bb Effective stacks is an integral part of mtt strategy in chipping up.

I'd 3b or fold pre. I like flop/turn but that's just not a good river card to keep going. check it back and hope he shows down AKss/KT or something.

Stevie wonder would have played that better. Wtf are you even doing pre and post

3b pre.

If he's calling otf he's calling THAT turn. If he's calling that turn he's calling THAT river - pretty predictable IMO.
