PokerVIP - NL10 AsTs

Blaze v the usual preflop limper and iso-reg. Limper is a fishy obviously, reg is weaker one.

So we get to the flop, if I bet I'm not folding, but if I chk/c and villain bets pot (as he is liable to do) I'm a bit stuffed.

Not sure about this one but given I have up&down and there're a couple of draws I thought maybe bet/call it off or go more passive and chk/c a sensible bet to see the turn.

I don't like calling to hit though, it sucks and if I bet and get raised the pot is huge and I go with it was my idea.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Probs just about weak enough that I'm not seeing squeezing as being mandatory. I'd probably just overcall in game.

Assuming we have any fold-equity whatsoever we should fire the flop. At least we can partly set our own price this way given that villain apparently has a tendency to bet pot.

It's actually really hard to call a PSB assuming we check given that we have a 1 card oesd on a two-tone board and we are not guaranteed to see the river. Can easily end up being a check/fold if we don't bet.

With two callers already in I'm calling this and probably squeezing JJ+ AQ+.

If the limper is really a fish then although he has everything hitting this flop he probably also has a ton of garbage that will fold. So I would close my eyes and make a small c bet, but obviously it's not great. I doubt the EV of check folding is much different though.
