50NL: Standard set value decision
 

Villain has been sitting for only 21 hands, running 29/0. So basically unknown. I have no reason to believe he is either a maniac or an imbecile.

This spot is so standard, I am surprised I've been thinking about it. Anyway, I think the issues are obvious enough.

Thanks.

call, hope he pots it on the turn and then just get it all in

if he doesn't pot turn, 2/3-full pot it yourself

if he has QQ, oh well nothing you can do about it. Hopefully he overplays his AA/KK/AK/AQs type hands though

turn raises generally get a lot more credit than flop raises.. we don't want villain to give us credit...

But we might get a second barrel bluff from him. If we raise flop, we wouldn't.

And a flop raise on that dry board shows also a lot of strenght.

Call. Raise or bet turn. There isn't a scare card in the deck for us, and there really isn't a card that is going to slow him down, as far as I can see.

fiksdal would you really raise here? i find a call every time and then a raise on the turn where hes more invested-- hes probably going to fire a second barrel, and if he doesn't, he wasn't going to call our raise anyways... just curious as to why you would raise because i feel like that pushes people off kq, qj, etc.

board's dry, I call and fire away on the turn
