Villian was 26/10, hadn't noticed anything out of the ordinary. This was the 30k guaranteed deepstack. I'm most curious about the turn bet

what are your other options? c/f the turn? i do not like that line. i think this is fine tbh.
i cant see a way to play this better, minus...preflop....which can be argued. but i am opening this here a good chunk of time and folding on the turn as played. looks good.

yeah i mean aside from the part where i don't usually raise 89o from the CO this early...

check-folding the turn really sucks, and calling = RIP... wp imo
