steve,

don't you think the guy would bet a hand like AK or KQ on the river when you have the T9dd early on?

I dunno about vs a total unknown, but against a regular i might just check the river to let him value bet his Kx, or make a bluff some of the hands he will just fold when you bet.

you do lose potential value vs like 88 or A7 that will check behind the river, but I'm not convinced those hands are enough of his range to make betting best

Yah the background music was funky too ^^, was hoping for you to make the jk calldown there, the speed with which he potted it on turn was a good tell.

89o - Folding to BB donk bet with oesd and weak bdfd. I understand your reasoning but I would have thought you might check his donk bet stat before making the decision?

Aside from that it's a pretty good flop for you and I don't see how a call and reevaluate turn can be bad here. Obviously if the spade draw completes (even if your str8 completes) then you can be much more cautious. Is he going to bet in to you without the flush often? I would expect not as when you call it looks so much like you are drawing so he should play pretty straightforward on the turn. The SB is a nit so rarely going to proceed here unless he hit a big hand - all his pocket pairs and missed broadways fold (most of his range?).

You sould be able to get paid if you hit your str8 draw too (and no 3 flush board) as it will be somewhat disguised. Mmmm - I guess this is debatable.

This donk looks so much like Qx protecting against draws.

Would appreciate some further thoughts here as I would definitely want to call but maybe it's a leak.

On the JTs hand. I agree that when he raises the turn he never has a hand that now has a boat on the river(esp with his timing on the river bet). So when he makes what looks like a blocking bet isn't jamming the best play since he will probably fold all the hands were chopping with and will probably fold AJ if he even c/c with this hand on the flop?

Well, is his play really that bad? He bet after you checked to him -- pretty standard imo. You give him like 4:1 on a call, and his ace has to be an out pretty often too, right? Right now he has 30% on the flop.

He has 30% with two cards left, 15% with one card left. I could have raised bigger but most hands he has there have so little equity that I thought it was worth it to get some extra money in the pot and/or open it back up for a shove, but the more I look at it, I think I should have raised to $16 or so to give me an easier turn ship (slightly better leverage point, and denies him quite as good of odds.

Either way I don't think my play is too bad b/c his range is totally crushed by my range.

no one is folding a straight for a minraise, at least not often enough for me to want to try it at 50nl
