I decided pre-flop to squeeze against loose opener and loose-passive fishy player in SB. Initial raiser folds which I expected, loose-passive fishy SB calls, which I didn't mind because I expect to be ahead a lot of the times against his calling range here since he is so loose-passive (small sample but I already got to see 3 hands at showdown from this guy so I had a read :)).

Given this read, not sure if I had to check back the flop or c-bet like I did. I decided to c-bet. By reviewing, I think checking back is probably better, since that T and J is connecting with his range quite a bit (broadways). But OK, bet-call. Also, as he is so passive, I expected him to check the turn again, so my bet on the flop is almost like buying a river card as well.

On the river, I make a straight. I was not happy to see him shoving there, since that is almost always the nuts. KJ is the nuts, JT is also reason enough for him to shove here. Runner runner flush maybe... I don't see him doing this with worse hands, so I should have an easy fold here I guess ?

Hey ferrari1f,

It's true that the flop connects with his range. I think we have enough equity to cbet anyway however. But it's a close spot and checking is fine. I wouldn't say one option is vastly superior to the other however.

Turn check is good.

Sick river spot, but unfortunately it's probably just a fold here.
