Ok this hand is kinda annoying, I'm just wondering if you think I should be raising anywhere? I mean on the flop with a second pair type hand is there really any reason to raise? His sizing is annoying. And with a player behind on

Turn, I don't think he continues betting hands like 88,77 etc, but this player probably just doesn't really know what he's doing so what would you suggest? Just call turn and evaluate his river play?

And yeah that player did open fold the flop lol.

Player 4(SB) $10 - VP:0 PFR:0 AF: W:0| STL:|100 3B:0| CB: N:-0.30 Hands:8
Player 5(BB) $9.13 - VP:30 PFR:20 AF:Inf. W:33|0 STL:33| 3B:0| CB:100| N:-1.17 Hands:10
Me(BTN) $10.10
Player 6(UTG) $11.27 - VP:40 PFR:10 AF:0 W:67|100 STL:0|100 3B:0| CB:|100 N:1.02 Hands:10
Player 1(MP) $8.56 - VP:60 PFR:10 AF:Inf. W:17|0 STL:0|0 3B:0| CB:100|100 N:0.87 Hands:10
Player 2(CO) $10.49 - VP:0 PFR:0 AF:0 W:50|100 STL: 3B:0| CB: N:0.34 Hands:10

I think calling turn for that price is ok. I definitely don't like raising at any point, it's just turning your medium showdown value into a bluff.

I don't expect villain to bet so small with 3x, and he doesn't have to have Kx either.

If he bets the river I would fold. Horrible spot really, and I wouldn't hate a turn fold.

No need to raise with an overpair, we only fold every hand that doesn't have a king on such a dry floap. As Turlock said, turn is an easy call giving the price, river I decide on the size of their bet. Anything less than 50% and I'm calling to take note and think I'll be good often enough.

I think a raise at any point would be spewy with this 2nd pair type hand. I actually think there are spots where you can raise something like this for thin value but this board isn't it. You *could* (with reads) do it on something like K65 since on that board there are draws, 5x, 6x, 77-99 you get value out of where with this board you're not ahead of a 3x and there aren't any draws so there's much less to get value from.

Never fold flop to that sizing. Since his turn sizing is tiny I think you probably have to call again. I would be ok with a fold as well since the hand started 4 handed and that might make his betting range tighter. If villain was normal I'd say it's a crummy spot since his range should be Kx+ and some bluffs but bluffs might be rare on this board, but since he chose this silly sizing I wouldn't be surprised if he showed up with random crap as well.

After calling turn my gameplan would likely be to fold rivers unimproved if he makes a decent sized bet. I wouldn't expect many players to triple barrel bluff here.
