Hi!

MP, BTN and SB have reasonable stats, CO is 70/24. Is this just a shove on the flop w/ 2 backdoors and a top pair?

Thanks!

You actually have 3 bd draws (sd). I'd like to think I play it the same way.

With the backdoor draws its definitely not bad EV-wise. But it seems like a spot where better always calls and worse always folds so I'd rather check and play poker.

It's probably +ev but honestly I think it's much better to bet like $8 here (or w/e half of SB's stack is) - we put MP and CO in really tough spots since they have 1/2 deep players behind them along with a SS that could shove - and then they have to worry about us re-opening the betting if they decide to flat. BTN doesn't have an easy decision either.

This way, we can at least b/f if the action looks like we're crushed (like MP raises and CO or BTN jams) - if we get a few callers and SB folds it's not the end of the world given we have a ton of turn cards that improve our hand.

Your SPR is 2.5 w/ top pair and 3 bd's. I'd run with it.
