Deep 2/2 Dealer´s Choice (90% 5C PLO, 10% regular PLO, a few hands of Pineapple) game at the local casino. Blinds are 2/2, I have around 1200 in front of me, Villain covers.
Reads:
Villain has played quite tight postflop and not been out of line. Played a few hours at this table at the start of the night, then moved to a NLT table, moved back a while ago. Trippled up not so long ago when he flopped nut full on a J99 board in a four-bet four-way pot.
Probably views me as quite fishy rec (which I in all honesty am, although I am quite decent at PLO when playing my A-game), has seen me play horrible NLT a few weeks ago. Today he has seen me pot flop and all-in on turn with top set vs two players (we ran it twice, I won both boards), I was involved in the pot where he flopped the nuts but did not show (I claimed I had KKT98 in the hand in question), and recently a really sick hand against a player who never thinks I have a hand where I four-bet KK97ds pre, bet pot on T76 board (two of one suit but no FD for me) and pushed my last 200-or-so (30% of pot) on the turn when the board read T976. Got more or less snap called, we run it twice and I say "guess I´m calling it a night then", turn over my hand and start to get up after dealer burns two low river cards that do not help me in any way (but do not complete the flush either), but after a look at his cards my opponent mucks (!!) and I scoop the 500BB pot with two pair.
This is probably the only time I have been seen out of line, otherwise I have gotten my money in good (except on the J99 board where I did not show).
On to the hand:
Hero (EP) bets 14 with AJT97ss
MP (700) calls
Button, Villain (1200) calls
SB (300) calls
Straddle (1000) calls
Flop: A
T
6 (pot: 50)
SB Checks
Straddle Checks
Hero bets 50 (Hero does not have hearts or the backdoor flushdraw)
MP folds
Button raises to 170
SB, Straddle fold
Analysis:
So, now to the interesting part. What does Hero do against Villains small raise? If we call, pot will be 390 on the turn with around 1000 behind. So, what do we do, call, raise or fold?
At the table, I felt that his small-ish sizing meant something of made hand+draw or a big combo draw. I am quite sure that he does not hold top set since I assume a three-bet from AA hands on the button.
What do we do and what is our plan for the turn?
