Hey,

Villain is 80/15 but over 20 hands so no good stats or reads on him.

Isolate to play IP with him preflop.

Quite a connected board on the flop but his bet didn't exactly seem strong and there are a lot of draws he might hold on to so raise his bet?

Turn connects some of his SDs and flush draws, unsure here whether we should bet or check behind.

River - Again connects the board even more heavily, I think we c/f this as no worse hands are calling?

Thanks!

Heya,

I think your line here should be to raise a bit bigger and shove the turn. You have to account for his stack size when you decide how much to raise and in this case you made it a bit too small. 0.05 bigger would easily to the job. :)

Thanks! These are hands I often have trouble with, especially in later streets. Just gotta keep practicing and anticipating later streets a little more.

If I did raise flop bigger here can I still shove this on the turn with such a dodgy card that connects sds and fds?

It's probably the absolute worst turn card because so many draws get there but I think it still becomes a shove. J8s type hands don't fold, 78, 79, 88, 99 still think about it... It's tough to say for sure.. The thing is, against somewhat reggy player it becomes a check to give up but at NL2 you don't have what I would call a true regular. I think giving up might work better at NL2 since you are not perceived to bluff so often and the card hits his range a lot. AJ would still shove though, too much value from QJ, KJ. I think your kicker is the deciding factor here.
