hi,

I'm playing my suited con in position against a fish to my right (43/3/1.8) and the BB (19/13/inf). I pick up a strong draw which i'm tempted to stab at when checked to, but I want to try and keep some of their range alive incase I hit on the turn so I check. The turn doesn't help me, fish bets, I call and BB folds....
Is this passive line the best idea?

Hi, bro.

So, the idea here should go as follow- I rather iso pre with only 1 limper. If there were 2 or more limpers, I agree limping behind is a very good option on these limits.

As played- bet flop. You have 8 high and absolutely no showdown value. You are happy to take the pot now. Bet 80-85 chips. If you make Tx fold, you achieved quite a good result, same with Jx f.e. although I assume somebody would lead with it.
