I considered donking this flop but elected to check call were there a bet. I lead turn with nuts and redraws then bet smaller on the river to ideally let 2 pair or lower straights call.

Thoughts on donking the flop as an option?

Thoughts on this as a 3b spot? I figure call and keep everyone in with a deeper SPR than 3b pre and create a low SPR jam into 3 spot.

Zoom so no reads.

Flop bet is fine to thin the field and also something we want to do when we have 99 for ex to get protection.

Dont like to 3bet since you dont push EQ and we have a hand that plays alright multiway. Little bit better and we can 3bet it like QJT9ds. Doesnt matter that much if it gets 3way or 4way.

Im betting POT, POT here when we are so polorized to nuts/missed draw.

I think potting river folds all 2 pair combos and a lot of 58xx type hands which is why I went smaller on the river. I would have preferred to have gone as small as like 67c - 88c on river to get a light call. $1.12 was probably a little too large. (lols at $1 being too much heh)

I would like to bet the same with my whole range. And to bet that small with bluff is not ideal since we get to many calls. And not with nuts either bc we loose so much value when he calls with 58.

Think about it. They will need to call you with 2pairs 3 times here for you to win 2.30$ with the small size. Or call you one time with 58 if you bet POT. What do you think is most likely to happen?

If you think they fold everything except the nuts you are wrong, but in that utopia i would still bet POT with my range bc we will get 100% folds and print money Smile
