Should I just be raising here on the flop with intentions of getting it in?

i play it the same

yeee you have no fold equity on the flop i like just calling here.
the thing is villain will usually be making a bigger bet on the turn so you'll have to fold most unimproved turn cards here a lot

Shoving flop is +EV but your line is better.

When did 19/6 become a nit..? That just means he doesn't raise much preflop. He could have all kinds of hands on the flop you still have FE against so I just try to get all the money in there.

+1

Flop call looks good.

if we shove flop.........

.47(150.7 ) - .52(113.20)=70.829-58.864=+11.965

Now say we just call flop...........

On the flop we call 16 to win 53 with about 14 outs.
we need 2.5 on the flop call to make it a 0ev play.
53-(16*2.5)=+13

Assuming we have no fold equity is ridiculous. Sets aren't very likely, and its quite possible he has a pretty strong ace or fd.

We aren't getting paid with our flush outs often, in fact, he's going to have those covered quite a bit.

Shoveola.

Why does everyone think we have no FE? He could have a str8 draw of FD...

because 19/6s are more likely to play draws passively

A 19/6 is unlikely to c/r a draw. 19/6 are typically passive players, aren't they?

If he's c/r a good ace, he will certainly fold it sometimes, and talk him into call also sometimes. I think he calls AK 90%, AQ/AJ 50%, folds weaker aces most of the time.

But i think his range is heavily weighted to sets/2pairs which call always.

You have no idea if this is true against this villain specifically, and furthermore, you admit that you are uncertain. It's not like villain has to fold often for shoving to become the better play.

im not saying shoving flop is -ev but i think saying a 19/6 is more likely to play draws passively is like saying a 23/20 is likely to barrel at scare cards often

its not always true and is a generalization but its a good assumption barring other reads

i just got mad scurred because it says NIT in the thread title.

ike is right. send this combo draw, just call if combod with the ace vs this guy.
