OOT I bet for value against weaker toppairs and pair+drawing hands. The bet size shouldn't be too big so as not to isolate me against better hands, after all there are still a lot of stronger hands possible. OOR same thing, however some Kd improve to midpairs. I blockbet to get a crying call from worse. They raise most likely with QT one d or KJ. Bluffs are possible with lowpairs + flush or straight blocker. Should I bluff catch? Is the betting plan correct or should it have been larger and more polar?

Why no 3B pre? As played I would snap fold(esp if villain is a fish, because he has to turn pairs into bluffs)


3B pre

As played:

X flop
B turn
B river, Fold his raise


Rhymes with tree-pet


Looked over some GTOW preflop sims - the hand seems indifferent between 3betting and flatting. Why do you guys prefer the 3bet?

Ah it's GG. In that case you can techincally flat because hands are raked preflop.

Tbh even if I was on GG though I would still be mostly raising here. Multiway sucks in general and we have position on a capped range (calling on the BU would be better). For GTO, calling is only +EV/mixed if we can navigate postflop perfectly vs perfect players and given that will never happen I'm dubious mixing here is a better strat at even higher rake. personally I find narrowing the SPR and ranges easier to play all round.
