Default Re: HUSNG - Marginal hand OOP on turn

Hero bets 120
Villain raises to 240

Hero?

Anyone like betting 90 or 150 better?

Oh, and as for KT oop, I think it's close as to whether you should raise preflop or just check. Against loose small blind limp/callers, I'd rather not play a big pot with this hand and these stacks.

I'd rather raise it against somebody who's limping AND raising PF, as you can be pretty sure you have the stronger hand.

It's tough to raise a hand like KTo OOP to a constant limper because he shows up with hands that dominate or are ahead of you preflop too often and you put yourself in very tough spots.

agreed. I played a HU sng today against a constant limper and ran A4 into AA on a A46 board. I was absolutely shocked (match only lasted like 21 hands tho).

I would c/c turn as well. There are some draws out there that may not fold to a) strong bet (3/4 - pot size bet) b)c/r. I feel like you don't have that much FE on that board. You don't want to build that pot with a marginal hand OOP to an opponent that has a gigantic range of hands due to his standard limp PF.

I would prob hafta check the river if board comes paint as it completes lots of draws and probably call most bets except shove if river comes blank.
