H: good tag image

V: loose overall sometimes makes questionable and interesting plays. Pretty aggro

We both have 500

I open button for 15 with 7h6hto 15 v makes it 55 in SB we call

Honestly should prob fold?

Flop 5s5h6s

V bets 75 we call

Turn 260 As check check

River Ks

V bets 50 we make it 175

Good spot to turn a 6 into a bluff against this small sizing?

This is 100% a fold to the 3-bet. A small suited connector is not a hand you want to play heads up against a strong range with an SPR < 5, regardless of having position.

I guess as played we need to call flop.

Then we need to get to a cheap showdown and hope he has unpaired big cards.

This runout is terrible for bluffing river. He has all the best hands.

Agree with the above. This is not a good bluff spot. The small sizing could easily be him putting you on an underpair and thinking he can’t get you to pay off more. He can still have all monster hands.

And yeah, I’m folding to the 3bet.

Yeah kind of a blunder here

The small sizing induced me a bit.

Obv I can never have AA or KK

He easily could have QsQx

You've got someone aggro to your left. Don't be raising unless you can 4 bet. Picture this...

You just call the blind, Villain raises to $20, BB folds you call.

Now, you didn't raise on the button so your range in his head has that flop in your range. Is villain as likely to c-Bet? Nope. If he does and its the same 2/3 sizing, then the pot is $70 on the turn. Play the hand out the same.


Aggro players want:
1. A big pot
2. A scare card on which they can bet and you can't really call.

If the hand played out the same without you raising, you're looking at a $70 pot on the river. Max he bets there is $100 though it's not really as worth it to him and he wants 1 and 2 above. He bets pot here to steal it and you risk $80 with 50/50 odds of winning.

The hand is a fold, if Villain only 3bets a narrow value range. Against a proper 3bet range it's a call.

What are you representing, what are you blocking and what are you unlocking?

Surely, you can't be representing a 5x, because you would be betting the turn, no?

Maybe you are representing slowplayed 66 and 65s, but that's a very narrow range. Because of this, you probably shouldn't be turning all of 76s into a bluff either.

Having said, I am trying to think of better candidates for a bluff and I am not sure I find any. 78s might be one. Do you bet 78s on the turn or check? Either way, 78 is a bluff, if you choose to bluff catch with the 67s which might be the play vs the small sizing.

Pre is ok imo, in theory it's a snapcall and he gave you a very good price. The downside is ofc he should 3b stuff like 66 KJo Q9s etc. in reality it's probably not happening. Just do not limp/c as someone suggested. Flop good, turn I'd probably protection bet 25-30%, he has a million 6 outers vs your hand type and you have very little air hands. You have some good aces, 5x and 66 that can stack off, so you're more or less protected, it's not a faceup bet he could blindly attack.

AP I'm just folding river. Against a very good player I kind of like what you're doing, his tiny bet is pretty smart, should rep TT-QQ and some Kx, which you don't really have in this line, so it makes your pps and 6x suffer. Also, it's a big success for him if he only puts in 50 with these hands against Ax. Nice counter to raise small repping Ax, but the issue is in my experience the average player doesn't bet super small with the appropriate range. First of all they usually have zero bluffs, which hurts bluffraising a lot (btw if they had bluffs you might just want to call getting 7:1). Then they usually just miss the thin value, so at the end they might just have some KQ KJ and a lot of traps/Ax that just want to induce/milk you and dgaf about strategy.

Results:

We make it 175 he tank ships
Lol he shows us AA

Maybe a bit of fancy play syndrome but when he bets this tiny on the river idk what to do honestly
