I would love some thought on this hand. On every street I'm not sure of my play. The original raiser (28/22/9.5 3 Bet) had a 67% raise button over 50 hands, so I figured this was a good spot to re-steal. On the flop he had an 83% C bet so I figured he was pretty much C betting close to his entire range here. His turn C bet dropped dramatically (I had notes on him that he freq. gave up on the turn) With my OESD I feel like folding the flop is so weak, I feel like both my 9 & 10 could be good here, as well as obv. the straight. I felt like I could get him to C Bet the flop and I would lead the turn, getting him to fold his air, and even if called, I have a draw...

Not sure. Any advice would be awesome. Thanks!

What do you really rep once you c/c the flop and lead the turn?

Cbet this flop...fold to serious aggression on flop or turn.

Why did you decide not to cbet the flop? You have the initiative and decent equity on a very dry board.

So he's stealing a lot, but how often is he folding to 3-bets?

If your not cbetting this flop, c/f, don't call. What are you trying to rep with your turn bet?

just because he opens a lot doesn't make this a good spot to 3bet him.

He has to open a lot AND FOLD. Whether he likes to call and fold to a cbet or just fold to the 3bet itself, it doesn't matter. But you don't want to 3bet a lagtard OOP who will just call and float.

Postflop, your decisions need to be tailored to his tendencies, not just your hand. If he's bluffy/floaty, i like a c/shove. with slightly deeper stacks i would like bet flop, CRAI turn.

If he doesn't call super light preflop, i would barrel him if he doesn't like to call down and I would c/f or c/c if he's stationy.
