My first ever hand post, please let me know if more reads/info is needed. Both players are winning regs and I have played upwards of 50k+ hands with them both. Seat7 very tight, limping 3rd does not have A2, pair or 3 flush in his range. A7,A8,87, any 3 gut is about it. Given the range I put him on being 2 pair, 1 pair w/A6 low, 6str, 7str, 8str come 6th street. Seat1 is solid with random often spew, range on 3rd very wide, but calling 5th narrows considerably to what I perceive as flush draw, straight draw, 2pair, set. Will never have low given Seat7 board and leading out. Given all this I had absolutely no idea where I stood equity wise against these ranges I have perceived and what would be the best line to take. I'm open to anything on 6th street with full reasoning. Will give my line and thought at the time if this gets response.

Raise/cap 6th all day every day.

thoughts, reasoning?

We quite likely have the best high hand and it isn't inconceivable that we have the best low hand. We can also draw out to a better low. We really want to punish people for having one way hands when we are strong in both directions. Seat 7 is going to bet basically his entire range there and it is definitely possible he has a hand like...(45)6 and now just has 2 pair but is repping his strong board.

I think I like just a call her eon 6th, keep Seat1 strung along drawing dead. You are going ot have a scoop quite often, but in the off chance you are 3/4'd here, you'd like Seat1 to come along.

Now, if Seat1 will come along for maximum, which might be true, you should raise.

i don't see how seat 1 can continue even for one bet...unless he has clubs, but those are very dead...

so it's just a matter of whether there is value to raising vs seat 7's range. it actually seems pretty likely we are chopping here a lot. the aces are completely live, there are 3 deuces and 3 sevens. intuitively i would still lean toward a raise to get value from non-straight/worse low/two pair hands. perhaps we can figure something out from seat 1's hand since he did not raise the bet on 5th.
