HERO checks, UTG+1 bets $1.35, HERO?

PRE
Definitely had to iso bigger, at least 0.5 or 0.6

FLOP
I think, sizing is too small. Had to add 1 or 2 BB. He`s very aggro overall and might raise with FD`s, as well as Kx. Maybe my betsize induced lighter raise.
I guess I have to call at least once.

TURN
Give up?

Hello,

I would isolate bigger - like $0.6.

On the flop I would rather make it $0.6.
When he raises, if you think he has a lot of bluffs/draws, then calling is fine and planning to call him down.

As played, turn brings out the flush, so folding is good.

Best,
Plamen

hi kymupa

if villain is aggressive then what's the point in cbetting here? FDs are only a tiny part of his range so i'd rather check/call this flop... saves getting into sticky spots like this...

I think the reason we can still cbet here is that he can bluff raise a lot and our hand is strong enough to catch it in good cards. And in case he just calls we're still getting value of him.

Well the main reason that we can cbet here is that he is usually going to continue with a fairly loose range on KKx kind of boards.

So having this said, we can't really determine that a fairly passive opponent is going to bluff-raise here a lot.
