Thoughts on this line? From the preflop action we can see that both are likely fish (button is 39/3 and sb is 39/14). The flop is so dry that I feel like we can check AK here, no turn card in the deck is bad except maybe a 7, and it's easy enough to get the money in later. This allows our opponents to "catch up" in a sense and they're more likely to spew off on later streets if they think I'm weak. Is this too fancy and I should just be betting small on the flop to set up a turn jam?

Turn is a great card for us. I decide to bet out with only one player behind, I don't want to lose value by trying to go for the checkraise and having him check. Plus, we need to start getting value from our hand. On the river, we don't love the spade runout but with only half pot left I think we should still be jamming to get value from worse Ax. Thoughts?



BTN shows

It's fine AP, but I think we can bet this flop.

BTN and SB can have plenty of hands in their range(s) that we can get value from.

I think we can bet this flop often for very small sizing, turn probably better to size down too. If we bet something like 1/3 he needs to call with some underpairs with this sizing he just calls with fd and tp.

+1 for betting flop

Should be betting flop and shipping turn

Checking driest flop ever with SPR <2 is very ok... (betting multiway also ok)

don't think you can do much wrong here, I do a lot of checking to induce against fish with low SPRs

you have other hands to x flop and you're not checking everything, but whatevs
turn bet is too big with a hand that blocks a lot of their calling ranges

I agree with 1/3 bet on flop, maybe even slightly smaller. After this, turn is a shove.

Agree with other posters - why not cbet flop?
