All options seems fine to me but shoving seems the best vs fish. I would expect sets to raise the flop and Kx to fold by the turn, especially vs that sizing (except flushdraws). So I believe he most likelly has a busted flushdraw or something like 7x, TT-88. Since I don't expect fish to bluff, I think it's better to bet ourselves and expect calls from 2nd pairs.

I think it depends on player. Vs aggro fish I would definitely x/c. Villain probably wont call turn with Kx hand and if we check it likely induces him to bet with weaker pairs (88-TT) or missed draws. Vs passive fish we can bet small to target lower pairs.

I'd agree that shoving is probably best. He can call with 7x, 44,55,66,88,99,TT and he really shouldn't be calling the turn with any Ks others than Kxc.
I also think betting like $2.10 is more likely to be called by anything under a K but you only have $4 left anyway.

I would bet something like 1 $ and call if he push.

Definitely don't like check/folding. Hard for him to get to the river with many Kx hands.

I think check/calling is OK, but he definitely can have some 77/22/A3s type hands.

Overall, I agree that shoving is best. It looks quite bluffy and he can hero call with his 88.

That's an interesting take, but I think you're targeting a really narrow range of hands that can be induced to bluff - just his clubs and 54s. He'll call any pair for 1/8 pot, but I think he calls a shove often enough for that to be more profitable.

Bet 1/2 on river. But I am not sure we have to call a raise.

If my math is correct, on the river we have $3,54, so if we are betting 1/2 pot, we are actually shoving, so I'm sure we wont have to call a raise. ;)

Sorry, I know you just missread the stacksizes, but it's funny. :f_thumbsup:

Agree w my mates here. Shove and be happy about it.
The utg here likes to call, he has a reasonable amount of combos that we beat and doesnt seem like betting himself.
