Alright so I'm not actually hero ITT. My friend asked what I thought of the hand and we had very different opinions on how to play this properly.
Hero: Loose, aggressive early 20s kid. Plays too loose pre but overall solid postflop
Villain 1: Aggressive thinking player
Villain 2: Standard live drooler
Hero opens CO to $10 with 8
9
(yes I know this is also a mistake but this isn't the point of the thread)
Villain 1 calls on the BTN
Villain 2 calls from the blinds
Flop 6
7
K
and V2 donks $12, Hero calls, Villain 1 raises to $50, V2 folds. Hero?
What is the best line once we get in this situation? We're getting 2:1 odds to chase our draw, but villain is almost sure to bet turn so if we miss turn is going to be awful to play.
Anyway, I advocated just folding to the raise. My friend thought making a backraise to $125 or so would be the best play. According to him, villain is aggressive and he thinks he would bluff this with the vast majority of his range, almost A2C.
What do you guys think? We might both be ******ed and calling is the best play.
