$50 NL HE 6-max: Making big pots with marginal hands
This is a spot were i would normally go for pot control as even for someone this loose there are not many Kings I beat and this pot is gunna get very big if I bet.
However the board is very drawy and imo to have a VPIP of 73 you are playing all connected and suited cards so is it unreasonable to assign most their range to draws and make a very big pot with my marginal hand as they are not going to pay off a bet on the river with a draw now are they.
UTG: 73/1/22 (70hands)
SB: $50 (100 bb)
BB: $29.50 (59 bb)
UTG: $49.85 (99.7 bb)
MP: $50 (100 bb)
CO: $62 (124 bb)
Hero (BTN): $111.40 (222.8 bb)
Pre-Flop: Hero is BTN with K:diamond: 9:heart:
UTG calls $0.50, 2 folds, Hero raises to $2.50, 2 folds, UTG calls $2
Flop: ($5.75) 6:diamond: 5:diamond: K:spade: (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets $4, UTG calls $4
Turn: ($13.75) 8:spade: (2 players)
UTG checks
Should I bet and charge the draws or check to not inflate the pot?
