8-handed 1/2
V1 (limper) is loose and fairly passive pre, but doesn't easily fold post, and donks a lot. On his nth rebuy, stack $100ish.

V2 (3better) is tag-ish older gent. Only other hand I was in with him, I had opened to $15 with 99 and he shoved a $90ish stack. I folded and was shown AK. Has since chipped up to $275.
Hero covers.

V1 limps utg, hero raises next in JJ to $15, V2 3bets HJ to $30, v1 and hero call.

Flop ($85, 3 players) J T 3
Check, hero check, V2 bets $15, v1 calls and it's on us.

I would go to like 90 or 95 setting up for turn jam on non diamond

My thinking was v2 has more combos of overpair with and without diamond than he does flushes. Plus the other player might call off his stack with pretty much any diamond, 10, straight draw.
But the $15 bet is kinda what the forum/theory suggests as a standard cbet on monotone boards, right? I often see 1/2 players overplay their hand so it was interesting to see otherwise.

With your read on V2 being TAG-ish, I think I'd be coming back over the top with a big raise when we're OOP. Make it $115 (pot). Call a jam. Best case, it's set over set against TT. Worst case, you've got 10 outs to boat up. Somewhere in the middle, you just need to fade a diamond.

If they call and the turn is a brick, just jam.

Raise but not enough that KK or AA with a diamond can fold.

Raise to $65 - $75, call anything. Never folding here.

You're basically targeting hands like QQ+, AQo, AKo with a .

Raise to $60-70 to build a comfortable turn pot size of around $225, leaving villain with $100 behind. The goal is to commit QQ without a and AKo/AQo with a to a turn shove.
