H: MP2, 1100, tight winning image
V: SB, 400, a little bit LAG/fishy

H opens MP2 to 20 with 8d8s
V calls
BB folds

Flop 5h4h4d, check, Hero 25, call
Turn 6c, V bets 40, Hero??

What even is a brick though? Like, what card is a "brick" on this board? 2 makes a straight, 3 makes a straight, 456 pairs, 7 makes a straight, 8 makes a boat, 9+ are over cards. I'm a bit confused here.

I REALLY like a raise here, especially given description.

He's not an aggro maniac who will shove if we raise here b/c he has the nut advantage...hes a fish

We get value from a TON of hands : 33, 77, 67, 56, Ah6h, Ah3h, etc etc.

And those are hands that make sense to play this way?

Exactly what Homeless said was my read. It feels like one of those cases where it’s doable to get more money know from those combo hands than on the river where most cards change the complexion. Further let’s say an overcard comes river - what’s the max I can bet given he’s an absolute hand value donk?
