I lead the flop or better c/r the flop if i think villain will fold AK.

If he folds AK, then only better hands call and worse hands fold to your raise.

On the contrary, if you get him to put more money in the pot drawing at 6 outs you've induced a mistake. Check/calling all three streets allows villain to play perfectly where you are often the one calling down with the worst hand drawing at 2 outs and giving him opportunities for free cards to draw out on you. The bigger the pot gets, the bigger a mistake it is to give free cards, especially with a hand that's vulnerable to so many overcards and potential draws. Raising the flop allows you to find out where you stand earlier, rather than later...

As played I think the river is a fold. The only hands you beat are 22, 44 and missed draws, however I really think that most of villains range includes made hands that we are losing to. Even the majority of pairs you beat preflop you are now behind.

I really think that c/r and b/f flop both suck. I thought about b3b though. I think leading makes this tough to play though if I take any line other than b3b as b/f is pretty weak for me. I pretty much only b/f air, whenever else I lead the flop its with the intention of getting it AI.

Also, I'm not looking to make the hand easy to play. I could care less. I'm looking for the most +ev line. I think folding the turn is a mistake tbh. I have a much much wider range than most of you probably and 77 has some good value here. On one hand the river looks like a bluff figuring me for a missed draw. On the other it looks like he could be vbetting K9+ (vbetting thinner seems a little bad with this sizing). Its just about figuring out frequencies.

As for the only hands I beat being missed draws, I completely disagree. I think he will definitely have air here a decent % of the time (say 20%).

This was my thinking a week ago, but I started trying to think differently after this thread.

The 2 hands are totally different. In the other hand you have position, top pair and pickup a nice draw on the turn. You have the advantage of seeing how each street plays before deciding what to do.

In this hand you have a weak made hand out of position. You have to bet blindly into another player on a board that's really not that great for your hand and gives you little chance to improve, if your outs are even good.

The 2 hands should not be played the same. Try not to take advice too stringently. You have to apply concepts differently based on a variety of situations in poker, that's why people often say it's such a situational game.

nobody like to 3bet preflop?

i fold turn here .when i am IP i raise it. but it depends really on villian if he could lay down a hand. A turn raise is so powerful and you have 7 outs.
flop raise IP is nice too.
but this hand is in oop. you should lay it down on the turn.

even if he is firing 2barrels w/overcards i am not happy to call him down oop and its not worth to find it out.

some stats plz: attempt to steal blinds?
