BTN: $8.76 - VPIP: 39, PFR: 25, 3B: 13, AF: 2,1, Hands: 71
SB: $8.10 - VPIP: 40, PFR: 8, 3B: 0, AF: 0,5, Hands: 25
BB: $3.18 - VPIP: 40, PFR: 20, 3B: 0, AF: 3,0, Hands: 25
Hero (UTG): $21.41 - VPIP: 26, PFR: 17, 3B: 5, AF: 3,2, Hands: 2797
MP: $0.97 - VPIP: 0, PFR: 0, 3B: 0, AF: 0,0, Hands: 18
CO: $4.81 - VPIP: 21, PFR: 5, 3B: 6, AF: 0,0, Hands: 38

Pre Flop: ($0.07) Hero is UTG with 6 :diamond: 8 :diamond: 6 :club: 7 :diamond:
Hero raises to $0.14, 2 folds, BTN raises to $0.49, SB calls $0.47, 1 fold, Hero calls $0.35

Flop: ($1.52) T :spade: 5 :club: 7 :club: (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, BTN checks

Turn: ($1.52) 4 :club: (3 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, BTN bets $1.05, SB folds, Hero calls $1.05

River: ($3.62) 5 :diamond: (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $3.48, Hero calls $3.48

Preflop Im strugling to expand my range it seems to max out on 17. I guess this hand is too loose to open from UTG. Perhaps I missread it as a rundown, idk.

Flop
Depending on the action I would call or fold, but it got checked through. That tells me Button either has a weak overpair, straight draw with no fd or maybe weak naked fd, or he smashed the flop with a Top set + fd. I dont know if hes gonna 3bet ATTxs IP but lets say he does.

Turn
I was planing to bluff the turn if SB checks to me, but I hit my straight, so no point in bluffing. When we both check a second time I can see aggro players attack the turn. But what does he have? I put him on weak flushes and bluffs.

River
When I saw the river my thoughts were if the river gets checked back I have sd value. If he bets I most likely am up against a bluff, so I check, he pots and I snap call.

Ok I thought this was a very interesting hand. I must admit I am a bit baffled by his line and betsizing. Even if he would have had a bare flushdraw on the flop, wouldn't it make sense to Cbet this? But he doesn't but then on the flushing turn once it hits he bets quite big like 2/3? And then when the board pairs on river he bets almost pot. A flopped set would surely (C)bet for value and protection on a semi connected two tone board no? I cannot make a lot of sense of this line. The only thing that bothers me is that the turn seems a trivial call but the river not somehow. I would definitely call turn because with his flop check back IP as the preflop raiser, I think unless he is ultra passive he wouldn't wait until he actually hits the flush before he starts betting. So I would not give him credit for the turned flush automatically. So a call there is in order imo. But for someone who turned the flush, why would they they POT a PAIRING RIVER? The only past experience I have in these spots, and that is why I am talking from my own experience now ONLY, is that I was up against a random double pocket pair preflop, maybe like AA44, then turns a set, bets it somewhat for value and then considers you having a random flush which doesn't worry him anymore on the river as it pairs and then bets big because he bets big when he has an equally big hand. I could be totally wrong here, but this is what I have encountered in the past. Would be very curious if you could tell us in a spoiler what he had. Bluffs are also in his range but that is indeed all you beat right now you don't beat an average player's value range on this board (full houses and flushes).Thanks and GL

Spoiler

Final Pot: $10.58
BTN shows J :diamond: Q :diamond: T :club: Q :heart:
Hero shows 6 :diamond: 8 :diamond: 6 :club: 7 :diamond:
Hero wins $10.17
(Rake: $0.41)

I expected an A or K flush blocker.
Like I said, I made up my mind when I checked the paired board that Im calling any fast or big bet. If he really had a weak flush he would have pondered whether he has a vbet and how much. But no, he fast-potted, repping basically ATTx with a flush. _drink:

OK well great decision making there nsavov. His line truly did not make a lot of sense and I am happy you were able to pull the trigger and just call the potsized bet. Come to think of it you only have to be right 1 in 3 times to call pot here and that means if he bluffs even 1 in 3 times here you have a profitable call. So I think you are right to have called, a third of his range must surely be bluffs with such a weird non sensical line he is repping flush on the turn boat on the river makes no real sense. Great call!

When he checks the flop, he doesn't have a set almost ever.

Why should you widen your overall PFR from 17? What makes you believe it's something you HAVE to do?

And if you want to increase your aggression, do it first from BTN and CO. Not from UTG, that is a great way to lose money. That hand is not an open from UTG or MP.
