Hero has large sample size on V, a good reg, who thinks I am overcalling in many spots. Should hero ever x/r bluff OTT?

Hero has bought in short to target the shortstacked rec to his right. Have large sample size on this V, known to underfold turn, and known to overbluff rivers. Hero may have missed a full range OOP cbet on this dry flop.

Are these lines standard?

Looks good with the information, we like to 3bet 65s BBvsSB

hand 1 is wp if you c/f river
when you c/r river, V should never fold a flush or boat and he should theoretically fold straights and 7x at least some of the time but he prob won't enough times to make c/r +ev, also average guy would prob not vbet river with straights, 7x or good tp+

hand 2 what do you mean you bought in short to target shortstack? effective stacks stay the same when you buy in full

def cb flop 1/4p-1/2p, esp as he's known to underfold turns, because you want to bet flop bet turn to take advantage of this read. you have the bonus read that he overbluffs rivers so you make even more money when you bet, bet, check to induce

With 65dd, I wonder if check-raising the flop might be a decent option. Leading the turn could be good too, as your range is all over that board.

I understand that we tend to x/r wide against a merged cbet range of small sizing, but a against a polarized (and vs specifc opp likely value heavy) large sizing, should we not just have an extremely narrow x/r?

in situations where a shortstacked fish is on my right and a deepstacked reg on my left, being short is more advantageous.

Generally speaking, I think that's true (raise less often vs large sizes), but there are some boards where even if villain pots it and is polarized, you can still check-raise over 30% of your range. I'm really not sure about this flop. I can definitely think of other combos that I'd be more inclined to check-raise in preference to 65s, but I don't think it's out of the question to do it at a low frequency. It's clearly not strong enough to call down multiple streets, so I'd sometimes make a move on the flop (or donk good turns).

h1: i would just fold turn but its not big deal as he will be betting a lot of draws we beat which he will most likely check back otr

h2: bet flop. he will float this board a lot and you will get big value from all pp 6x
As played snapcall

Hand 1 I like 3betting pre
As played, well played
You should not be checkraising turn with that hand because there are other hands like draws with no showdown value that you would rather checkraise

Hand 2 I think your line is fine other than sizing
I would go smaller both pre and on the turn
Turn is very dry and still pretty bad for your range since villain should have more jacks so I like betting even smaller than half pot

H1 is too loose/stationey all around.
H2 we "should" call. Otherwise what is our river strategy here? Only call with a jack? He is going to show up with a jack at a high frequency though.
