Hero ???

I have already stacked the HJ twice in two major pots, so he might be getting sick of it and trying to force the action. Button is a good thinking that usually plays higher.

Now that I have the board locked up on the turn what is the best move? With less than a pot sized bet is it best to get it in now to charge all draws or set up for a river shove? Checking might also be viable, but I think I don't like letting flush and straight draws see a free river.

Just bet/gii and hope he is strong enough to call.

I'd shove every turn but this one. Instead I'd exploitatively use a stupid sizing like $150 and shove every river.

So, V can call turn w/ all his draws (granted not many we are worried about) and play river perfectly? I mean, we do have it pretty locked up and could make an extra $150, but why not just try to get it all now?

Wait, does H have As?

We will probably make an extra $150, which we won't get on most rivers....

If I’m doing it right we have $500 left effectively?

By checking you’re hoping villain just blasts off some air hand like QJ that only has 4 outs.

I think the more likely scenario is that he’s only going to jam with his high equity draws (so FD + gutter, FD + pair) and hands that would’ve called an all in anyway.

I’d stick it in and make sure he has to pay to see a river

He shouldn't have too many draws. I'm looking to get a crying call from pairs less than Kx and make them feel priced in otr.

Would bet flop a lot larger because of how good that board is for us. Not folding vs raise.

AP I’d jam and not worry too much about it if V folds.

I think it makes sense to get creative and bet something weird if HJ had more than a PSB left on this card though.
