do you do anything different here? how do you react when he just flats the flop with so little behind?

, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 Players
LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

MP: $50
CO: $21.31
BTN: $19.06 [Loose/Passive]
SB: $136.03 [TAG]
Hero (BB): $58.54
UTG: $88.30

this particular Loose/Passive opens often, but becomes passive postflop

SB(TAG) seems decent.

I 3bet to a slightly bigger size than usual as pot is 3ways and
it lets me enjoy a nice stack to pot ratio vs BTN, while also making it more likely I can isolate.

Pre-Flop: K♠ A♠ dealt to Hero (BB)
3 folds, BTN raises to $1.50, SB calls $1.25, Hero raises to $5.75, BTN calls $4.25, SB calls $4.25

I see no reason to bet more than just over half BTN's remaining stack here, and I doubt the SB has much that crushes me that he wouldn't have 4bet pre

Flop: ($17.25) A♣ K♥ Q♠ (3 Players)
SB checks, Hero bets $7, BTN calls $7, SB folds

Turn: ($31.25) 7♦ (2 Players)
Hero bets $7, BTN calls $6.31 and is All-In

Spoiler

River: ($43.87) 3♥ (2 Players - 1 is All-In)

Results: $43.87 Pot ($1.50 Rake)
BTN mucked T♣ J♣ and WON $41.68 (+$22.62 NET)
Hero mucked K♠ A♠ and WON $0.69 (-$17.87 NET)

Just unlucky there imo, no way can you give up on the turn when he has just over 1/6 pot size bet left and you have top 2. So really it doesn't matter about him just flatting on the flop because I don't think there is any way you can get away from that, i'm a bit shit with odds but I think you might nearly be getting odds to get it in as a semi bluff drawing to a boat even if you knew he had a flopped straight.

full boat draw + flush draw would probably give me ~26% equity vs a made straight on flop I would guess. i'm estimating that though


Well played.

- no
how do you react when he just flats the flop with so little behind?
- put him all-in on the turn, since he would call your shove with any pair+draw or any Ax
