hey

no reads

just wondering if is this a easy bet otf? both of the villains ranges seems marginal i may not have the best hand or i may not get called by worse but i just think betting here to win the equity we have in the pot is fine as played. Plus even if i was called here i’d probably go for a double/triple barrel depending on the run out.

Are you considering this bet a value bet or a bluff?

Their range does seem to be 'marginal' but there range is alot stronger than our particular hand on this flop (there are alot of draws- straight and flush as well as overpairs below an Ace in their range). I think if we bet this we need to be barrelling following 2 streets (on certain run outs) in order to fold out hands such as overpairs and better pairs then ours. So essentially we are turning our hand into a bluff.

yeah that's totally what i was thinking.

when I made that bet on the flop i was betting as a bluff, though i can't rule out that i don't have the best hand. I think if we bet we can get better hands to fold like 88/99 QT/JT/KT/T9s.

Also since both players ranges are capped a lot of good things can happen for us. We have position so we can apply a lot of pressure and against the initial raiser we could probably even bet on turns that complete flushes , i think the initial raiser would have bet there draws otf. However if the other guy c/c (that called from the sb) i'd bet on turns and rivers that does not complete the flushes. I just think the SB is more likely to have more those hands in his range rather the intial raiser. We may also be able to get the sb to fold a decent ace by the time we get to the river , especially on good run outs.
