5/10 NL live who double barrells here?
 

Foxwoods 5/10, 10-handed.

This one is heavily read-dependent, but I am curious what people have to say. Villain 1 is loose and aggressive preflop but is more loose and passive postflop. He can occasionally get tricky, but he has a lot of respect for my game so may be a little too scared to do anything funky with me in the pot. Villain 2 is pretty inexperienced so can play hands in weird and bad ways.

Effective stacks 2000.

I am in EP with 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

Preflop
Villain 1 raises UTG to 60, I call, Villain 2 calls from BB.

Flop (185): K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Both villains check. I figure villain 1 would bet if he caught a piece of the flop, so since he didn't bet I figured I had a good chance at stealing it. I bet 150, and to my surprise both villains call.

Turn (635): 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
Both villains check to me, and I bet 450. It seemed like a good turn card for me and I sensed weakness, so I went for it. But is it too risky to be betting into two people who called the flop here? Villain 2 calls and villain 1 folds.

River (1275): 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Villain 2 checks. I gotta check here, right?

That 9 isn't much of a scare card for whatever both villains called you with.

I can't think of a time I two barrel bluffed two villains.

On the river, I'm going to give up most the time. It's not a good board to put him on a MP that he'll c/c two streets with and I don't really like trying to get someone to ever fold TP without a real good read. If he didn't have those two hands, his FD got there.

I think tripple barrel here (and double barrel) is just trying to hard to win a pot.

It isn't exactly a bluff though. There is a decent chance that one villain will call with a draw and the other one will fold a better hand than mine. I know the 9 isn't a scare card, but in games like this, people will often call weak on the flop but then fold the turn when the betting gets serious. That said, I agree that I may have been pushing things too far.

Seems like the only hand you are beating is 76h/75h/65h (chasing a gutter on the flop and turning a FD) or a retarded AJ/AQ type hand. But thats just retarded.....

More likely he has a weaker K (KT/KJ) and is playing for a medium pot.

I really hate the flop and turn unless both players are super-passive.

Re: 5/10 NL live who double barrells here?
 

yes, check and give up

flop is fine but give up the turn

Agreed. Also check river. Betting it is burning money because it's pretty hard for you to credibly represent a flush after you bet twice with position against two players.

the problem with double barreling here is it never works unless u r deep enough to triple barrel: and if u r deep enough to triple barrel u gotta know enough about ur opponents and ur image for it to work occasionally, cause this double barrel NEVER works

IMO shoving is only option for a bluff on this riv. I might push here unless he's bad enough to c/c whole way on a flush draw and check riv when hitting.
