Hero ???

Vill is unk reg, on this kind of flops (one or two broadways and very dry texture) Im getting suspicious when they check and usually Im just giving up when I dont have at least GS, do you think its good strategy? Im giving up definitely too much, but what can I do, if they have shd value most of the time (at least I think so, but Im not sure)?
Maybe I should fire twice with air and expect to get fold quite a lot in these games (then note whos calling second pairs twice and stop betting to them at all here with nothing)?
I guess overbet from time to time would be nice, then when he sees it too much I can stop it.
Or same thing with bet T and overbet river?

Hey Sandraardnas,

Preflop defend ok.

Imo we can make so much money in this situation regardless of our holding. I would overbet here and consider following up on various rivers.

Whether we should overbet or fire twice with regular sizing depends on how wide the value range we can rep. When we rep a narrower value range it's good to tend towards overbetting.
