Yeah after you call flop it's gonna be tough to not have SDV so you don't even have to think about whether you have enough value

Or blockers but I think weaker player's XC range here will be a lot of QQ/JJ so those seem good too. Size seems fine, I might put in a "**** your ace high" pretty small bet even being IP


cbet 1/3 pot, check, check... Maybe they are trapping but most likely they just gave up. I expect to see a snapfold.

Is your flop call allowed? It doesn't seem very profitable to me.

Indeed, but I thought the low SPR makes it too speculative. Interesting.


What they don’t know, won’t hurt them. Only it does 😉
