Pre-flop as played.

Flop: I think 300 is a bit of an overbet here. I would bet around 225 here.

As played, I'd bet 600 on the turn and re-raise if he raises.


I like your post flop bet of 300 - A2, A3, A4, A5, A6 are well within his range - so pair TK or OESD are real possibilities and you are making him pay for the privilige of seeing the turn.

The turn is horrible and you are either well ahead or well behind - Normally I would bet 300 again as a a stop bet - but as that would make you pot committed it is a tricky one......

As he didn't get scared of your pot size bet on the flop, I would say check/fold and still in the game would be my line - but be very interested to hear what a judge says.

If you bet smaller on the turn you are pot committed anyway and i think you have to call here any bet or raise so just making his draw chases expensive is the best play imo.

So I would shove on the turn.


flop is fine imo, maybe 250 would be sufficient.
turn I raise 500 and snapcall a shove.

300's fine. and shoving the turn is worse than just betting IMO, no real bad cards for us from this point.
