Hero ???

Ok, so this guy was 9/5/2. I'm not sure where I'm at which is partially why I raised the flop. I guess his calling means he has a made hand or some good draw. I don't put him on an ace at this point, so I think that my ace could be clean, so I don't think my weak kicker matters should the ace come. Basically, I don't know what to do. Given his tightness I don't think a 5 is in his range other than 55. Part of me thinks set is the only possibilty.

check if he checks to you, use appropriate odds to determine if you should call a turn bet.

I agree with bsball8806. The board is kind of scary; nevertheless, I don't know how to determine when Ace high is still best.

Yea I think you get shoved on too often if you bet this turn, and theres a chance you could get laid the right price, or at this stake, even a check from a made hand. I would've probly raised more on the flop and get it all in if necessary, this turn spot is very awkward. Def like the flop raise though.

Given SB's stats, I'm guessing sets and overpairs are a big part of his range (maybe worse flush draws too). I'd expect limited fold equity against those hands, though obviously you did get him to fold with your raise. I call flop figuring my implied odds are good and I want to make sure worse flush draws stick around.

Turn: Without a read, I figure Button for a good hand after his cold call on the flop. I don't think you fold him with a bet. I check/call a small bet, check/fold to a big bet.

Edit: Didn't realize stats were for Button, not SB. But still, Button probably has a set or overpair, and SB likes his hand too, so I don't think you have the usual fold equity with your FD + overs.

raise more on the flop for sure especially at this stakes. i think that fact u raised small is the reason u have a difficult turn decision

[Gospy]

Ok, say I check, he checks behind, the river comes the 3 of hearts. What's your play then?

I guess only hands I beat at that point are over pairs, 55, and lower flush draws, so is this a check fold given his line?

How much would you raise to?

[Student Caine]

How big is your hand sample? 9/5/2 is an odd combination for 10NL.

[Gospy]

I know, it is weird. It's like ~60 hands, so I guess it's a small sample, but enough for me to know that he is super tight, and doesn't like to fold the hands that he does play.
