Hey
reads – V has been very active , raising a bunch , not seen any hands showdown.
which line would you take here, c/r small or c/s? or maybe leading?
I personally think check/shoving here is good, i'd do this with most of my semi bluff hands like 87, 57, 53, and flush draws.
cheers 🙂

Fold pre-flop. I'd ck/call flop. Definitely don't like donking, you block a lot of your value targets and are not really that vulnerable to a free card, because V probably isn't checking many draws.

I agree with Foucault.
I wouldnt expect to realize my equity more than 50% of the time on avg with my BB call range OOP.
I would fold T6o but call T8o+.
Your potodds preflop are 18,5 %.
If you realize 50% of your equity, your hand need to have 37% equity to call. (Not your range)
Against a CO RFI range like this: 22+,A2s+,K7s+,Q9s+,J9s+,T8s+,97s+,86s+,76s,65s,A9o+,A5o-A2o,K9o+,QTo+
T6o has 34,7 %
T8o has 37,4 %

Agree with Andrew that this is too wide to defend preflop. Your BB defending range should be closely correlated with how well you're able to play the hand postflop versus the villain in question, and if you're going to justify defending a hand as weak as T6o then you need to be really comfortable playing flops like these in a way that allows you to extract max value, to compensate for how often you're going to end up check-folding.
I don't think you can have a check-shove range here given how deep you are. I think a check-raise to 700 or more (depending on villain's c-bet sizing) is fine here if you have the kind of image that might lead villain to think your bluff range is a little wider here (and thus potentially peel with a slightly weaker range/bluff-shove versus your raise a little more often), but generally I like Andrew's plan of check-calling, since most of the hands that will give you value on the flop are likely to bet most turns anyway, and a villain like this is fairly likely to try to put pressure on your weak BB defending range by firing a lot of second barrels.

I think at this stack size, I would check/call flop and check/shove safe turns.
Andrew, I am surprised to see you advocating a fold pre. Isn't this a min-raise from cutoff with antes (unless I'm reading HH wrong)? I thought I'd seen you advocate defending with worse hands against min-opens from earlier positions than this. Is it because we are too deep, or because our hand is too weak, or for another reason I'm missing?

I'm probably folding this preflop because you have to defend any piece vs an aggressive opener unless they check back flops a lot otherwise you're not realizing your equity, and I don't think I'd want to defend the kinds of gutshots youll be getting. If this were suited, I'd snap defend because I'm a fish but youll be able to defend the flop more frequently, at least I believe so anyway.
If villain's tendencies are to cbet once and shut down, then I'd check/call and lead turns because if he has something worth continuing he'll call or raise, and if he doesn't he likely wasn't putting in money anyway. I don't want to give him the option of checking back the turn.
If they're triple barrel happy, you have a pretty sweet bluff catcher and can just ck/call down and gii on the river. Your range looks capped because a lot of cards can be scary on run outs, but if they're the type to triple barrel because they think they can rep everything, I think this is a good way to get value.
If they double barrel, ck/call and ck/shove I guess.
If you think villain is thinking about his own image but still has like a 90% cbet, then I think you'd want a check/raise small range here but I'm not sure what's best to put in there. The reason I'd want one is I think villain could realize you know what's up and lower theyre turn or river frequency significantly, which could actually put you in a tough spot equity-wise, but you wouldn't know it. I don't know how much adjusting goes on in stars micros. WPN micros don't really have adjusting happening except reg vs reg, and even then I'm not sure if I'm reading it correctly or if it's just sample size.
I really like Mr Longhits written explanation for defending. I haven't thought about it with a 50% benchmark before. I think about what the minimum is when the situations come up, but this is way easier. I think it should vary on the kind of hand you have, because it's easier to realize your equity (play postflop oop) with some hands more than others.

This is the action after the flop
london_ace checks
audzixxx bets [$265] london_ace raises [$699] audzixxx calls [$434] ** Dealing turn ** [ 4
hero has around $2000 (20bb) left in their stack, what do u do here?
I think it's unlikely v has called the flop raise with a hand like A4s/K4s , so i think shoving is best here , i'm sure we are getting called
by worse so often here imo.

@macdog90 ,I like c/r small here because we may get villian to 3-bet shove with Tx , we could also c/c flop and allow v to barrel of with weaker hands and maybe allow them to bluff with their air part of there range as well , which is all well and good. Only problem is that the flop is a bit drawy , if the turn is a we check v bets , we're going to be put in a tough spot , so i'd much rather get the money in on the flop.
@ginger , don't see why we can't have a check shoving range here? we are not really deep , at around 30bb effective..
@jabcob , nice post!

You're probably going to stack Tx anyway, and I don't think your decision is at all tough on a club turn (don't fold).

@long , how did u get 18.5% for pre flop odds?
i'm getting 2.8 to 1 on the call , unless i'm doing the maths wrong.

@foucault , yeah you're right , if v range conist of Tx the money is going in anyway , so may as well let him barrel off. Wouldnt mind ck/shove turn though 🙂

The 18.5% is right (well it's 18,9%) but you are actually getting 4.3 to 1 odds
