Right table, shouldnt you be folding trash like 47o in 2/5 blind structure against a player somewhat competent? Unless villain is passive and foldy, and tbh most people are pretty 3bet happy bvb these days, id just fold this and be happy about it.

Edit: Lol you just commented on it, spoke too soon.

While in agree that we always have this board locked down and the big blind will always call with his straightdraws drawing dead, theres a non zero chance that he`ll call with those even if we 3bet? And should he have an overpair he`ll never fold those no matter if we 3bet or not. However we risk losing bets against the other maniac if he happens to have 10x or somehow 33.

Completely agree that the QQ hand should be a flop raise against this guy, he`ll b3b a lot and we can call and raise the safe turns or just cap and bet down, think were losing out value against someone like this.

Its an interesting spot and tbh, i havent got that much experience with it recently. Brings me back to my old .5/1 days. I dont think too much can go wrong by fast playing, i agree so its prob best. Given how bad these guys are they prob will call with their draws if we raise

Against opponents who always keep semibluffing turns you can easily bet-call / checkraise unless its a 9 or a diamond, but fastplaying is also fine. I dont like the turn checkraise, you wouldnt play your draws like this too often i assume, and you lose value the times when he has a flush or a worse 7, and its not super likely he will keep semibluffing his own draws that he woulda called with.

Looking back i actually like c/c turn c/r river. Is that what you are suggesting? I agree we dont play our draws like this and i dont think we lose any extra action from a flush by c/c the turn.

Is that what you meant?

Meh, i`d have to have a strong read to take that line, i just think theres too many bad things that can happen from that kind of fps slowplay. If a diamond peels off and he has top pair/trips, he might not bet or even call a bet. But if we bet the turn we get raised by all flushes and all 7x and can 3bet and perhaps get capped, depending on how crazy he is. I just like to put my foot on the gas in these spots. If were gonna do the river cr i much prefer to just call the flop, cc turn and then cr river, but even that might be too fancy.

Gotcha now mate

How do you feel we should play a diamond or OESD on this turn assuming we 3b flop? Seems like we would only ever lead the turn into a cap with our value hands. Not that its necessarily a big issue.

The pot wasnt capped, you bet3bet and he called. However against a cap i would proceed with caution and would pretty much check my entire range if he had capped and checkraise strong flushes and potentially as weak as trips with a diamond kicker or something like that.

Nah he did cap the flop

Oh oh then im totally fine with either c/c c/r or just straight cr the turn.
