One of those spots you know you are beat on the Turn but would love to know how to correctly calculate odds of calling.

With him limp/calling preflop i generally put them on PP, SC, raggy Aces. I didnt lead Turn and was hoping to call a reasonable size bet and didnt want him to shove over (might not be the best train of thought here).

With his overbet could almost say i was beat and was thinking hard not to call.

I think a fish with 82 vpip so far will have a much wider range than that. So I would just bet/fold the turn for value. Kx still calls, worse Tx still calls, pairs with a FD probably still call, Ax with Ad can still call. Yes he can have you beat here, but thats why I bet/fold.

So I bet/fold the turn like $0.32 or so. And then probably check/fold most rivers because people are generally very honest on the river especially at these stakes. On the river you probably cannot really bet for value. Perhaps you could bet/fold really small again though, like 1/4th pot or so.

Basically on the turn you can still bet for value because worse can call. And if he raises he most likely just has you beat so you can simply fold. No shame in folding!

Also I think you could bet 1bb extra on the flop as well or even larger on this texture against a fish. If he wants to call, he will call regardless of your sizing so might as well bet large here for pure value :)

As played easy fold to his overbet :)

Thanks again TinoLaan.

You're right, i should be putting them on much wider ranges as i was thinking about this after the session and not during the game itself (something i need to work on somehow).

Bet sizing makes sense on the flop too.

Thanks for the time taken to respond.
