Hey DrRaab,

Preflop defend is fine.

Not the greatest flop texture for us, but floating generally +EV in a vacuum. (The exception is if opponent will double barrel extremely frequently in which case we should just give up on flop).

Vs turn barrel it's fine to fold despite turning a little equity.

Hi, w34z3l

Do you think it is reasonable to keep calling on the turn because of the little equity improvement and to float on the river if (and only if) a third :diamond: card hits the board?

My idea is that villain will check/call a lot on non-diamond river, so I´m inclined to just check behind and give up the pot as we will be called a lot if we bet a missed draw board, dont you think?

Is it an ok line in general or should we have more info about him before doing this in a 3b pot, where we generally have less fold equity?

Hey mkapt,

At higher limits the slight equity improvement is generally enough to get me double floating the turn with the intention of bluffing a lot of rivers if checked to.

It makes less sense at n5 because guys just don't double barrel light in 3bet pots that often.
