We might not open this hand preflop, but as there are fish at the table I think it is ok to go to se flop. OTF I simply go for value. OTT I believe fish can still call with FD or maybe even smaller pairs. We get raised. I should also mention that fish is very likely to be on a tilt (from previous hands). So, I think, what beats us. Better A, some 2 pairs and some straights has also completed. On the other, we block 6, we have OESD. I decided to call. What do u think?

As played turn is a fold.
We can xc instead.

Turn is xc for me as well. We can bluffcatch on the A and draw to better hands, though not nutted so we keep bluffcatching and keep pot as small as possible here
