Hello

I'm really not sure in this situation if I should be barrelling or check calling this hand vs 1 opponent. When I look at his stats (75/31) I think I need to be betting for value on all streets because he'll be paying me off with lessor hands a lot of the time. So maybe the best line is bet/fold on all streets?

Can I please have some advice on how to play this hand?

Thanks

Hey Alan,

I would bet/bet/bet if the turn and river were blanks but here the turn completes some hands (not enough to check so vbet is still the way to go) but then the river completes the rest so check/folding is the best play.
