1/3. V1 is an over-aggressive/sticky regular who I've played several sessions with, but not a lot of head-butting has transpired between us. V2 is new to me & reads like a passive older man. I haven't seen him involved in many pots or do anything outlandish/bad. Hero is a nitty-aggressive MAWG, but reads younger. Effective stacks are $300. I'm providing my preflop/flop decisions ahead of time, as I felt they were pretty standard, but interested in community feedback on those streets as well if anyone's opinion differs. Thanks & OTTH:

Hero (CO/$300): T9

V1 (UTG) c $3, fold x 4, H r $20, V2 (BTN) c $20, fold x 2, V1 c $20

Flop ($60): Q 8 6

V1 x, H b $35, V2 c $35, V1 c $35

Turn ($165): 8

V1 x, H ???

check

I think checking or betting is fine.. But, I would probably bet $75... I like keeping the betting lead...

Bomb flop shove turn.

I think you have too much equity and too little showdown to check.

The double gutter is nice cuz you often get paid when you hit those. Not a big deal, but 7c is no good for better flush draws, and you're doing about as well as you can in that scenario.

8 is a good card for you.

You could have bombed the flop and turn, but it's not bad to get 2 callers otf.

I don't think triple barrels are something to do often at 1/3, but you should probably say you have AA,KK, QQ or AQ.

Wish you had like $50 more. But, in order to leave a big shove on the river, maybe just bet $70.

Against a sticky / aggro limper, I would just overlimp preflop. Our FE on all streets goes way down against these type of players, which ain't great since we'll often only have T high. Would much rather have raised had it been the passive OMC limping in (who'll likely be a lot more fit/fold postflop).

I'm fine with the flop cbet although I probably only go $25 (since I feel there is virtually no difference in FE between $25 and $35). I'm also cool with looking weak against an aggro V1 (where if he check/raises we could jam it down his throat), and meanwhile if passive OMC raises he'll typically raise poorly to smaller sizing giving us a better opportunity to continue.

I just check the turn and hope for a free card. It's hard to fold two opponents, especially when one of them could have easily hit this turn (and they probably think it's unlikely we did).

As played, check with a passive player yet to act, hope to get to river.

Pre - Starting with only 100 bbs, I'd lean toward just calling and avoid a low SPR post.

Flop - I think this is an ideal spot to over bet pot, setting up a turn shove.

The worst 2 cards in the deck for your actual hand are a Queen and an 8.

The worst 2 cards in the deck for your range is also a Queen/8/6.

Check turn.

I pot the flop.

As played I check/evaluate V2's action and river.

Hero (CO/$300): T9

V1 (UTG) c $3, fold x 4, H r $20, V2 (BTN) c $20, fold x 2, V1 c $20

Flop ($60): Q 8 6

V1 x, H b $35, V2 c $35, V1 c $35

Against two players and having shown weakness on the turn, I think I just give up. If V1 open folds out-of-turn I guess I would consider a bluff against better busted draws (where a very small bet such as 1/3 PSB should get the job done), but if V2 is passive he could still easily be sitting here with TP (and never folding).

You can’t win now. Bomb turn, fire river was your only hope if it bricks out.

Not that you played it bad, but any sticky reg worth his salt calls you down light after checking the turn.

You gave up on turn which is fine.

Don't bet river. Just check back and hope he shows 75 somehow as you block most of the hands that would fold.
