vs. weak reg
any sense of raising smaller ott?

BTN: $83.25 (333 bb)
SB: $40.60 (162.4 bb)
BB: $13 (52 bb)
Hero (UTG): $29 (116 bb)
MP: $27.10 (108.4 bb)
CO: $27.27 (109.1 bb)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A Q 8 J
Hero raises to $0.85, 3 folds, SB calls $0.75, BB calls $0.60

Flop: ($2.55) 5 Q A (3 players)
SB bets $1.75, BB folds, Hero calls $1.75

Turn: ($6.05) 8 (2 players)
SB bets $3.81, Hero raises to $17.21, SB calls $13.40

River: ($40.47) 2 (2 players)
SB bets $20.79 and is all-in, Hero calls $9.19 and is all-in

Results:

Spoiler

$58.85 pot ($2 rake)
Final Board: 5 Q A 8 2
SB showed A 9 5 K and won $56.85 ($27.85 net)
Hero mucked A Q 8 J and lost (-$29 net)

I would raise flop and raise turn...

Raise flop for pot, there're plenty of draws that you don't want to give a cheap turn card to. You're blocking A, Q and 55xx isn't likely. So get the money in on the flop if possible ;).

Well played.

For balance reasons I much prefer calling the flop and raising the turn. It makes people barrel in to you on the turn because they think you're on a draw and there are a lot of scare cards that will shut down the turn, so I would much rather be in control of the size of the pot by waiting for the turn card.

When SB bets small on the turn it's clear you have to be ahead at this point and stacking off on the river is pretty much mandatory given how much you have left.

There are too much bad cards for the turn (KKKKJJJTTTT/23456789d)... Is this the reason to just call the flop? If we had a drier flop would it be best to raise flop?
