Hi all,

In the Big 22, I much prefer a blockbet/fold on the river to check/anything. As played I think vs this sizing check/calling is reasonable (check/folding's reasonable too tbh), but vs a bigger sizing we can check/fold.

this

i like idea of beting ~475-625 on river and fold to shove

as played depending on time tells i might prefer to ch/c

imo ch/f is worse option here we beat all his flush draws(we dont have Qh so he has a lot of flush draw combos)also we beat JJ/AT/KT and stuff so i realy dont like ch/f in this spot

If I have Qh, it will be better, because I will block a flush combos. I don`t think he will call flop and turn with only a Qh high.
When he bet on the river, I think he have ready flush or TT, 55, he will check back Tx very often. And maybe can bluff with Ahx or Khx, if in general call them on flop, because I bet vs 2 opp on the flop.

Yes, maybe he have Tx very often and will call a small bet.

Hi all,

I think a lot of opponents make some really stupid bets here with Tx type hands for a small size, just because they don't really realise how strong their range looks at this point. For that reason I don't like folding to smaller size bets. But I think folding to big size bets is very reasonable.

yeah this sizing's really on the brink. i think if it's any smaller calling is best. at this sizing i think both are fine.
