A perpetual goal of mine these days is to be more perceptive of spots to pick up chips.

This is a $5 Bovada FO. 

-Do you like the squeeze? I thought it was a pretty good spot, though some boards may give trouble.

Overall, I expect a rando Bovada player’s range to be fairly wide when they flat. It is possible some will flat big hands, but I think most of these guys will be pretty trigger happy here with the top of their range.

My squeezing range has hands that will enjoy barreling for value and as bluffs, but this is a strange part of it. I’m not thrilled betting flop and jamming turn. 

Is it okay to bet the flop and check/eval turn? 

Is leading the flop a small amount to block/induce viable? I think if the board was a touch less coordinated I’d like betting small, but not sure here.
