Villian Stats (VPIP/PFR/AF): 39/11/1

18 hands on vil. As most of you know from my special 1k post I'm trying to maximize my bet sizes for value, just checking if I overdo it at times.

Here am I right thinking any A rag, FD or better will call this size

SB: €20.00
BB: €42.79
UTG: €53.02
CO: €24.36
Hero (BTN): €22.77

SB posts SB €0.10, BB posts BB €0.20

Pre Flop: (€0.30) Hero has 2:heart: 2:club:

fold, CO raises to €0.70, Hero calls €0.70, fold, fold

Flop: (€1.70, 2 players) A:spade: 2:diamond: J:diamond:
CO bets €0.85, Hero raises to €4.50 and is wondering if it's alright or too much

I wouldn't raise that much I would make it ~2.80.I'm assuming you got paid off since your mention of of your 1k post about getting max value.

seems good, can't imagine a 40/10's range for calling your raise on that board is going to be very size elastic.

Yeah like vanq said. I have no problem with it. He is probably the time of player who calls with an A here regardless of size.

Well he is a 40/10 drooler? He is either going to call or not and bet size does not usually affect that kind of player unless you are shoving for 500bb into a 5bb pot

Ax are never folding, which is a case to make it huge, but otherwise you really want to make sure you get calls from gutshots and underpairs and stuff. We can easily get stacks in by the river with standard sizing ($3 on flop for a $7.10 turn pot, $5 on turn for a $17 river, $14 behind on river). I know action killers drop some % of the time and slow villain down, in which case getting value earlier is important, but I don't know if that counteracts the value of getting all those extra hands his range to continue on the flop/turn.

Click to expand...

i don't think even a 40/10 drooler is calling a c/r with underpairs and gutshots

Misread the board as A23dd, my bad. Agree with sizing being fine - he's basically got Ax/FDs/Jx which rarely fold to the flop raise (maybe Jx starts folding), and obv we want to charge those as much on flop/turn as possible.

Alright thanks for the replies. Always a tough dance this sizing thing :)
