2/4 game
Hero: 450$: CO: YWG, been playing for around 2 hours, fairly tight only hand that got to showdown was a big herocall with QQ on a dubble paired.
Villain 1: 700$ MP, Been raising a lot of hands pre and plays fairly passive post flop
Villain 2: 700$, MP, just joined the table no reads so far. He is an older guy who just sat down and knew to post blinds etc.
OTTH:
V1: opens to 14$, V2 calls, I look down at 4
5
and decide to raise to 54$. (Think folding here is the best option but I do not mind a raise with these suited connectors IP at times, specially with a tight image) V1 folds and V2 calls
Flop [125$]: 6
8
9
V2 checks and I decide to bet 60$, (Think its close between checking and giving up and bluffing here with no equity and no showdown). V2 calls
Turn [245$]: [6
8
9
]2
V2 checks and I check back (I dont want to get raised with my dubble gutshot and not be able to realise my equity and plan on bluffing J+ no dia rivers)
River [245$]: [6
8
9
2
] 3
V2 bets 130$ in to me here (I have a total of 340$ behind) Do I call or raise here with my straight?, I havent seen any hands of villain go to showdown as stated earlier
Also thoughts on c-betting the flop with my hand? (I do realise that folding or calling pre is a better play but vs an passive villain who is opening a lot I dont mind raising and expenting to take it down most of the time)
