AKs flush draw on flop

I think that betting the turn is generally going to be better than c/r-ing. Your line looks more credible when you bet because you'd often do the same with AA/KK/etc. Furthermore, this is a board that hits your opponent's range (to a degree) and if he jams the turn over your c/r, it's a shitty spot. Jamming the river as a bluff is somewhat appealing but probably not great given the SPR. I only say that because villain would have likely jammed the turn with a set and I think a lot of his range is some sort of medium pair.

Lobozovas: you say u dont know why u raised the turn .. well thats the problem of this hand .. especially on this limit you have very small (more like none) fold equity.

So just call the turn.

Btw: you cant make assumptions like "i hope he has lower flush" .. this is not the way poker is working .. you have to think only in terms of ranges villian can have in particular spot.

You should play with 100bb stack, so use auto top-up. I would bet OTT myself. As played I would just call.

That's a pretty poor card to check-raise imo.

Yes i knew turn was bad play and not valid, then i looked at that hand later on i tough myself that i should better checked turn. And i do somtimes think like that, which is not good and maybe i should start think in ranges if that is a cure.

Well have it at 99BB. If you get AA v KK when your stack is at $4.65 there's no point costing yourself that extra 9BB.

I would bet turn myself.
As played the xr is the worst, better call.

U can keep barreling.
If villain dont like to fold and u know ur FE is not good, than x/c, but not c/r.

Lobozovas, you have to bear in mind that the equity of your outs has shrunk in half on turn as there is only one card to come.

I don't like bluffing two streets with NFD, and especially not by an unorthodox check-raise. This doesn't work to the extent it should. You invest $2 to win $2 meaning your opponent needs to fold his worst bluff catchers. He called with TT. He should have snap folded. This illustrates one of the most reliable population reads there is. People call raises with weak hands way to much for raise bluffs in general to be profitable. The opponents see pot odds only.

Thats right, Yohan. And thats also why we should play towards value in those limits.
