Check flop. If you're gonna bet it, make it $15 and shutdown on the turn if he calls. I'd only double barrel if I was going to triple it.

I think you managed to get everything wrong.

CHECK/SHOVE TURN

[/ QUOTE ]

You saw that villain is a shortstack and will have over half his stack in most likely once he bets the turn?

[/ QUOTE ]

say if he bets 30, he will have 60 left to call. IT would be a crying call

[/ QUOTE ]

Shorties will instacall with most pocket pairs here.

doesn't c/shove turn just give 77 $?

Ignore true his line sucks horribly. No short-stack is folding to a check-raise here so we only win if he is bluffing.

lol of course it is, if not open shove the turn for 2x pot. You will get folds from like 77 sometimes and A-x and 4-x will call also other draws which is good. We have like 20% equity etc which is cool.

wow, dont bet this flop lol? This flop is awesome, don't bet with KT but with AK easy bet

[/ QUOTE ]

Ok, the lol is cute, but there is reasonable chance you have the best hand, but you can't take much heat and I don't think going all the way UI will be anymore profitable than playing a small pot and showing down. He is not going to fold much on this flop or turn, good luck convincing him he's beat.

Variance is probably the only difference in the outcome of your line and mine, and I think c-betting here is not that believable. It's definitely not an "awesome flop" either. He's calling with any Ace or 4 to make his gutshot, probably a wider range+fludh draw junk and pocket pairs. He may even just call thinking you've missed.I'd also be more inclined to bet with KT than AK because if am not behind to a pocket pair, which I won't ever fold out, I will surely be to an Ace and so I'd have no showdown value.

Check raising all in > c-bet+putting villain all in turn. Check folding sometimes is not awful in this spot either, there's no money in the pot.

3 barrels is obv not possible, didn't see just how short he was, my bad. I still hate betting this flop because you're sure to get called most of the time.

ah yes, stack sizes. $14-15 on flop, c/f turn seems reasonable.

I think everybody's missing the point here? Why is nobody commenting on the river fold. His hand looks like a 5 or air. No PP under tens bets all-in here after gero betting the flop and turn following his preflop raise. So what hands does the villainpush with? Any 5, any boat and a busted spade draw. I probably won't call here but it's pretty close.

I'm almost smelling 88-99 here. I can't really put him on a 5. I'm not sure why, but it's almost like he's letting you take the lead with what figures to be overcards.

I don't know if firing a bigger second barrel on the turn would have pried him loose, but after you checked the River, he probably just figured the 5 didn't help you and was betting whatever pair for value.

I don't think this is air here though.

Easy fold on river.

Surely you an find a better spot than trying to make Hellmuthian calls with Ahigh.
