hey,

playing 2/2 for 5 hours at the same table....
Evrybody is very passive...90% will l/c vs squeeze.

4way (straddle) (pot 16$)
hero(SB) A5

Flop: 1044

Hero: i decided to bet( 13$), it's a good board + my leads have gotten a lot of respect.

villain(callingstation) calls ( he could have anything, Ax, Kq, kj, qj, 10x, 99-22, 4x)

2way(42$)
Turn: 2

hero: bet(24$) i got a gutter + overcard +( if he realy has something, he will show it on the turn...he is obvious like that)

villain: calls ( now he defenitely has a pair, range ( 10x, 99-22, 4x))

2way(90$)
River: A

hero: I thought this was a good spot to VB big ( i saw him calling a big overbet with second pair earlier vs a simular play...But villain got very exciting, so i decided to check)

Villain checks back.

is this an obvious VB? what would be your sizing? ch/call? ch/F...

Pre call of the straddle is meh with worst position and a speculative hand.

Flop bet into four people on a paired board is spew. People are unbelievers on paired boards, so there is a lot of value when we actually have a hand, but they should generally not be bluffed on multi-way, as someone will have something they don't want to fold.

Turn barrel: hey, at least your story is consistent. If I made the flop bluff in the first place, I would definitely follow it up if it got me HU.

I would v-bet river for sure. Our bluff just turned into a value hand, and I would bet about $50 for value and for "if he folds I don't have to show" equity. Since you have SDV, a check call wouldn't be bad if you though it might induce, but against a passive V I think b/f is MUCH better.

Ummm. Check flop, check turn, AP smack yourself in the face OTR. I think you have to bet this river after betting the previous two streets. Don't hate checking though.
