Is this a standard 2-barrel. Can I hope to fold any mid PP?
Shall 3-barrel if I miss river?

I think it's reasonable to think mid PPs would fold. I'm fine with a second barrel, wouldn't fire a third.

these aren't my stakes so i'm out of my element but i see that as a great barrel card. You pick up gut shot equity as well as your flush draw and your hand is very disguised if you hit any of that. I wouldn't fire at river.

You're sort of contradicting yourself.

Seems like a great card to barrel for like 2.60.

If we get called and river bricks we give up imo.

ok i'll try to make myself clearer.

I feel that it's a good barrel card because we rep a K from our previous bet.
If our hand becomes made we might get paid off because our hand is not thought to be a flush or straight draws.

Nirwanda: how would you recommend playing the hand out?

Good spot for 3 barrels imo, especially if river bricks. I expect V to lay down most pp and weak Ks.

Unless ofc he's Russian. Russians can't fold.
