Hey all, initial PFR is a fish and the button we only have one hand on but he triple barrel bluffed vs me blind vs blind so can assume hes pretty aggressive

I know jamming is the stand play here and i would expect the fish to call alot with Tx, the reason in checking is to get both of them to call off
I would expect the fish to jam Tx and some worse hands when checked to as hes unlikely to realise equity and when the BN sees i check and faces an all in. I would think he would call fairly wide. So really its to try and get both stacks in here
If im beat at this point not like im ever getting away, just greeding for all that money and making it look like im giving up and they can feel happy with Tx/Jx/JT :)

I can argue bet check jam line probably looks stronger when you do it into 3 people.

You can also bet small here, the jam is really awkward.

Bet and then jam river I mean. 7 then 13 or w/e. 7x2 is same as if you got 1 jam from the smaller stack so you stand to make more this way

On closer look, bet check jam is the worse line available for you to take. As in the absolute worst choice available. It's the one line guaranteeing folds

So yea don't do that again

I'd rather try to induce a jam from the villains here with a smallish bet on the turn.

I dont mind a check here at all. Becouse the SPR is so small(less than 2 with CO and and 2.5 with the BTN) the money is going in with AA on this board. Its just a question how do you want to get all the money in from one of them or both of them.
I like the check because it balances your check range pretty nicely. I would check here 77-99, AT(i dont have any weaker Tx here I squeeze) and also boats and AA. This way you have all your weaker holdings but also hands that can and will continue.
I would bet here QQ-KK and AA sometimes if I were HU and AJ becouse i dont want to see a river card that might slow down the action(mostly overcards T or J )
You can certainly argue to check all your hands here.

Also betting again on the turn against two opponents just seems so strong that i dont think any competent opponent is giving you action with worst. You give them a chance to bluff the turn or if they check you can go for value on the river and i expect to get called.

The sizing is great on the flop becouse it gives you slightly less than a pot size bet left which will get your opponents to call of easier then if it was an overbet.

i dont mind the check in hopes of a x/r, as the Jdiamonds brings straight and flush draws. if they check thru re-evaluate on river

I just prefer to keep betting as played as now there's some draws out there that will call.
If I was going to check a street for deception here it would probably be the safe flop. Once they pick up something on the turn then bet at least half pot to charge draws and then id shove most rivers.
No need to get tricky with fish...just keep betting. If they were good players then yes a bit of deception might be required.
