-I go 20 preflop with a $5 straddle on
-I’m conflicted on the turn and can see it both ways. Sure, you want to bet to deny equity to her draws, but I also think you may fold out some hands that would call a bet on the river had you checked. BUT, your hand blocks a lot of her possible drawing range so she’s probably weighted a little more towards medium strength made hands.
-Overall I lean towards a bet, because i usually default to betting if I think the decision is close but I see both sides of the argument.
-hard for me to comment on the turn bet sizing without knowing effective stacks. Please provide if you can.
-I’m calling it off on the river. I just can’t find a fold in this spot getting over 4-1. There are enough busted straights and counterfeited 89 hands in her range and I’m just not good enough to lay it down. If V has some stupid hand that got there on the river, so be it.
