10NL TP OOP against tight-passive

[MrWooster]

This is a spot I don't like as it is OOP and I have a hand which I think is the best, but I do not want to put too much money in the pot....

Villain is 15/2.3 and a tight-passive type

Hero ?? <font color="blue"> The pot is already quite big, and my hand has not improved, but I still think I have the best hand 70% of the time. Do you check here or bet? I am worried that checking will induce a bluff since I bet so little on the turn... but if I bet, I am playing a weak hand in a big pot.... what do you think??? </font>

Just check PF and see the flop.

PSB the flop, you want to price out the draws and get a good read on where you're at.

Turn, not much changed with that turn card. Retain your betting lead a fire the 2nd barrell.

River, c/c or c/f read dependant. If you think your villain is capable of betting a busted draw, TPWK or less then call. If not then just fold. This villain seems pretty passive, if he bet a reasonable amount (3/4 pot or more) I'd fold.

Why would you want to play KT OOP for a raise. This is just asking for trouble. By the way, I had 4 5s yesterday on pokerstars at this limit. I wonder if I was the villian?

[Eric Yang]

lol but why would you call the flop with 45s

[HighOctane]

Four 5's not 45s

I just realized you were probably making a joke, which is pretty funny by the way.
