Now you have a sidepot with $200 in it that you want to fight for. V1 range is capped and your range is very strong. Bet an amount that makes him fold pocket pairs like 66-TT, his equity with two live cards, etc. I don't think V1 is ever going to bluff here so mainly just looking to fold V1's equity. An amount like $180-200 is probably enough. Would be very tempted to jam a number of turns against V1 if he flats the $200 since you are repping an overpair very credibly.
I'm making it $180 for V1 to call. I felt if I made it any more I would be committed post. Does anybody else think I should have gone bigger?
As played, I led out $150.
I think a check would have been better. He may have checked back one pair hands.
V called. Turn was a blank, check, V1 all-in I folded. He had JTo. Short stack had AQ.
