i should also note that I think clubs are kinda discounted here due to sizing, but since it's a lot of air + worse aces you gotta cram. flatting the c/r isnt really an option because we have to get the most value from worse aces by shoving (and repping any ace(?) and clubs)
Why are clubs discounted due to sizing?

This makes no sense at all.

it makes sense. COUNTER-ARGUMENTED!

sheets, the flop checkraise seems to warrant a fit-or-fold action from bmf, and not many flatcalls overall for bmfs range (cept small aces i guess). so i think clubs would checkraise bigger so as to not lose the effectiveness of its being a draw (c/minraising and facing a shove, one would have to fold zee club draw)

You're advocating jamming TPTK when according to you his range contains "a lot of air".

if his air won't barrel but he stacks off lots of lesser ax hands shoving is reasonable

That's correct but irrelevant, why would anyone ever c/r small with air and then not barrel at least some of the time?

bc it seems rather suicidal for air to barrel most turns on this board texture if flatted

They might some of the time, but if Ax might also check-fold some of the time on the turn (Like this turn) it's better to make sure to get the lesser Ax in on the flop.

Giving up in this thread after this. If his range consists of a lot of air on the flop, I would suspect that the small c/r is designed to induce calls from a wide range of hands, including many that will not continue on many turns. Yes, we could lose value from worse As the 20% of the time a club turns, but we might also pick up value from some air hands that otherwise would not have barreled that might think the club is a decent bluff card. The idea either in a vacuum or in this particular context that when someone's c/r range consists of a lot of air and some made hands which we beat we "gotta cram" over the check/raise with TPTK will continue to make no sense to me forever, sorry.

I agree with you fwiw, was just pointing out possible reasoning of the counter-argument, if they are assuming that lesser aces check-folding the turn occurs more often than air continuing, which I don't think is the case.

well i think air, especially air from dfish, continues here 0

will buy tropical drinks to anyone who can cite this as wrong and provide proof. dfish gets first dibs.
