Is any of what I'm doing correct here? I've got other problems in my game but this one shows up alot, the pair + draw scenario.

i'd bet a little less on the flop.

Also - ure semi-deep so i just call the flop hoping for a good turn. You can probably take it away with a flush card too.

meh. I play it the same. He has an overpair here more often than he has the nuts/set.

He's not semi-deep, as effective stacks are ~100BB.

BTW I play it the same, but I'd like some opinion on whether or not its the best way to go.

Im probably calling here in position and seeing the turn. We have a lot of outs, good implied odds, and not the best FE.

The implied odds cant be great. If we improve our hand at all its gonna put 4 to a straight on the board...which kills our action unless split/behind.

[derosnec]

i guess you can call but your implied odds outs aren't as many as you think.

if a 2 comes, you likely won't be stacking him. and if a 7 spades comes, you likely won't make as much, or you'll lose your stack.

so, three good outs for implied odds and the backdoor flush. and i guess trips/two pair, if they're outs at all.

[wslee00]

ah - i thought CO's stack was villain's stack.

to OP - do you find yourself getting c/r'ed light at these stakes? I see this like almost never so I like a call here.

if either a spade, 7 or 2 comes up, I push if he bets, or bet if he checks.

I probably continue a flush draw bluff on the river.

[uncleshady]

I get minraised constantly at NL50. Feels like half the time its the nuts, the other time its bottom pair. Pokerstovers, what do I look like against 77+ or two spades? Interesting that there are two opinions on how to play this, though.

I don't think villain raises anything he's going to fold to a 3-bt here: 99-66,44-33,As2s,KsQs (38/62 villain) I just call here.
