Think on this board with this blocker and backdoors you're actually reasonably happy about getting it in overall.

That's what I figured. And what I did. I just wanted to make sure that I shouldn't be calling and then say calling off the rest on a non-straightening turn card.

No, that would be pretty awful if he ever bets that turn with a worse hand, or even frequently a hand against which you have enough equity to call.

Yep, makes sense. Just hate the the times I have to shove flop in order to essentially coin flip against his range. But necessary part of plo sometimes. Thanks.

Very close - I don't think he's shoving sets, maybe some weaker 2 pair hands. I think this is a fold given we're not much of a favorite over Qx or really any part of his range for that matter. I don't have an equity calc but I'm not sure if we'd have 42% here or whatever you need.

Very standard stack-off.

Ye I think its a shove. I think overall with top pair and overs on this texture its just categorized as "too strong". Your not going to be happy with SB range. But I think you have to pull trigger.
