PokerStars, $3.16 + $0.34 - Hold'em No Limit - 25/50 (6 ante) - 8 players
Replay this hand on Upswing Poker

UTG: 3,527 (71 bb)
UTG+1: 1,061 (21 bb)
MP: 2,007 (40 bb)
MP+1: 1,407 (28 bb)
CO: 3,213 (64 bb)
BU: 1,370 (27 bb)
SB: 629 (13 bb)
BB (Hero): 286 (6 bb)

Pre-Flop: (123) Hero is BB with 7♥ 5♦
1 fold, UTG+1 calls 50, 5 players fold, Hero checks

Flop: (173) 5♥ 6♦ A♠ (2 players)
Hero ?

What is your plan here? We have 236 chips behind. Do we jam, c/RAI or even c/f?
I think this is a board which will be c-bet frequently by the PF aggressor and accordingly it might be best for us to check-raise here. Does that make sense?

I like jamming with no showdown value. Its even better with no ace.

There is no pre-flop aggressor in this hand.
Villain is limping here and otherwise you would fold right away if he would raise pre-flop.
Tough to give the limper credit for a ace. So shoving is fine. You have some fold equity.
Off course if he called you are in bad shape.

Cheers,

in such a pure chipEV spot i think x/shove is the best to get value from bluff "c"bets given that when you donkbet he never folds better hands

One of those spots where both options on flop are likely close to each other. Thing is if there is fold equity anymore for x-r line. Villain might shove or bet-call some random T9. Also donk bet has advantage of not giving villain check chance as turn is most of time lowering your equity and will then end up again in check spot but in worse situation.

But likely difference on these lines are small.

You are correct, sir! Villain showed more aggression than I did PF nonetheless :f_biggrin:

I am not sure if I understand you correctly. You are saying that a board without an ace is better to shove because he will often have the ace. Is that correct?
Also we do have some showdown value. Are you saying you like this more with a bluff hand and would play our "value" hands differently?
Sorry for my stubbornness

That's a great and helpful response! :f_thumbsup:

we have no showdown value. This term refers always if you do not improve.

The other thing is correct. He got lots of ax in his range yes
