Is he ever folding better?

if not then do you want to bluff catch turn and river, maybe bink something?

We also don't need him to jam worse to call we just need the appropriate equity against his range and given how much we have invested we're getting too good a price to fold.

r/c > shove pre.

Shrug b/c flop to the shove.

Skinny that's the point I'm trying to make, if we raise standard in this spot do you really want him to call?

Raising standard allows villian to call cause he is so deep, and now what do we do OTF?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but do we really want to play poker at this point, or do we just wanna steal the blinds?

@dave...why is r/c better than shove? I honestly don't know.

spots like these are def a weak spot of mine. i never feel great about b/c and checking flop through and folding to a barrel on the turn feels just as dirty. i prolly just c/nit fold.

I prolly call on the 3b on the flop since we're short and our money is mostly in - but isn't his hand really weighted to this:

55-88, and he's protecting.
