FTP 5/10, Nuts on flop, River decision vs reg
 

Villian is ur_an_ASSet, who has tight stats (16/13/4) but will play against me pretty aggressively especially when he's in position (often 3-bets button when I open.)

We don't have much history. He probably views me as somewhat nitty. I also get the sense he is capable of floating lightly.

What's the best bet size?

I'd probably bet 300 here for value

Re: FTP 5/10, Nuts on flop, River decision vs reg
 

I would either fake block 150 or bet big 450.

Re: FTP 5/10, Nuts on flop, River decision vs reg
 

if he's 12 tabling, like he normally does, he's not floating for sure. i'd bet like ~$200.

Re: FTP 5/10, Nuts on flop, River decision vs reg
 

bet small and hope he raises, as a regular hell prob fold to a big bet a lot in this spot

Re: FTP 5/10, Nuts on flop, River decision vs reg
 

Yeah fake block looks good. It's a play I don't make as often as I should.

Re: FTP 5/10, Nuts on flop, River decision vs reg
 

Cool. I led for $150, he folded very quickly.

Re: FTP 5/10, Nuts on flop, River decision vs reg
 

i would bet 430, youre repping one hand (Asx), so when you actually have it you should bet big.

Re: FTP 5/10, Nuts on flop, River decision vs reg
 

I think betting big here is better than a 2/3 bet or a fake blocking bet. A good opponent will read the smallish bet as a sign of strenth here I think. Bet at least 400.
