Opponent-41/27/0 over 62 hands

Turn CBET-75

Ok I am Calling flop here defenitely. If i am folding here then i am folding everything without an Ace.
Turn- I think is probably not a bad card right?
My Equity on Turn against such a range: 55+,A2s+,K5s+,Q8s+,J8s+,T8s+,98s,A7o+,K9o+,Q9o+,JTo

is 45.8%
Is it ok to calldown then? I think i have the equity to call on almost any River card.
If he checks river on a blank, should i bet or checkback?

Do you really think you have 45% equity when he bets turn?

Hi!

Flop call is fine indeed but range you put him on preflop is too wide. Anyway you still have 40-42% equity on flop.

You should probably call again on turn. This turn is one of the best for you since it reduces chance of him having Ax. Also I think he will double barrel here pretty much all his bluffs since you can call this flop with any gutshot. Also there are many draws in his range.

Equity Win Tie
MP3 67.22% 66.66% 0.56% 88+, 66-55, A5s+, J9s+, T9s, 98s, 87s, KsQs, KcQc, KsJs, KcJc, QsJs, QcJc, KsTs, KcTc, QsTs, QcTc, Ks9s, Kc9c, Qs9s, Qc9c, A9o+, QJo, JTo
BB 32.78% 32.22% 0.56% KdQs

If he is cbetting something like this you are about BE on your money. If you c/r most of your weak draws on the flop(like 78,89,79,some FDs) then this hand is actually pretty low on your range on turn so in this regard its ok to even fold it. It always look wierd to calldown MP open with Khigh:)...so ya I would probably fold this on turn since river is then another guessing game. I dont mind a call though,especially vs some more agro players(and this guy can easily qualify.

Since you call with some weak Ax, with pairs, with Pocketpairs like JJ and all those hands, KQ is quite the bottom of your c/c Flop-Range. It means you should c/f the Turn with this hand. You are playing against an mp3 range which is quite decent and if he bets again, it's likely to be some hand. You are blocking worse Kx and Qx hands and he won't rarely have a worse flushdraw, neither he does often have 78 or some draws like that. Since Ax is quite bad and take off outs of you in case you'd have 5x 6x, i'd also fold with those hands and just calling down against an unreasonable/laggish opponent who is blindly betting the Turn with too many hands. But reasonable Tags use to have a strong turnbetting-range, mostly consisting of Ax and high PP's.
