OOP with an overpair on the turn, good line?
I've been at the table for probably 100 or so hands. Villian seems fishy, typical 35/10/1 donk. I've been playing about 18/17/3 at this time.
I bet the turn with the intentions of folding to a raise, how is this logic? Also, how is the size of my bet? I figured 50NL players aren't usually advanced enough to get it in against me here figuring i'm weak because I bet only around 1/2 the size of the pot. I also wanted to try my hardest not to commit myself if I didn't deem necessary.

Re: OOP with an overpair on the turn, good line?
If you are usually taking a 3/4 psb on the flop, 2/3 psb on the turn and 1/2 psb on the river, then your line doesn't look particular weak. But I prefer potting this flop, since it charges draws more.
b/f turn seems fine to me. If you check here you are giving up way too much value to AJ type of hands. And just because there is a flushdraw, doesn't mean that villain has the flush. And you have a flushdraw yourself on the turn, which is definitely good for you equity against his range (you beat more and he is less likely to have hearts). |

The only reason i didnt pot the flop is because i really dont want to commit here when a lot of the time being oop will lead to very difficult decisions on later streets. Aka I wanted to give myself some room to bail on the hand if I needed to.

Re: OOP with an overpair on the turn, good line?
Why what exactly beats you here that you want to "bail on"? your way ahead of a flush draw on the flop... you want to get as much value out of the flush draws/AJ/JK/etc hands as you possibly can. and you want your opponent to make a mistake. calling a pot sized bet on the flop with a flush draw is a mistake...
why would we want to play a hand that is way ahead of villians range passively? if hes such a donk then we want to get money in the pot asap |

Re: OOP with an overpair on the turn, good line?
Because if i'm raised on this turn it seems like i'm never ahead, since I doubt most opponents are aggressive enough to do it with something like AhJx.
I agree that by betting pot I get full value from a flush draw, but not necessarily from any of his other holdings, middle pair or a pair between 7s and Jacks will potentially call a 3/4ths pot bet, but may fold to a full sized pot bet. And if he has one of those hands i'm obviously not too worried since if I check or bet the turn when it's a heart, you will rarely get raised if he has one of those hands. And furthermore I don't think we're playing this hand passively at all, raising preflop, betting the flop, and now betting the turn isn't exactly passive in my book. This is just a situation where I have a hard time finding a balance between getting value from every pair that I beat, yet being able to let go of it when/if the flush card hits. |

Re: OOP with an overpair on the turn, good line?
this is played fine assuming you fold to a raise
