$2 NLHE 6-max: Hit straight on turn 3-way on button

[bbennie1]

So I call 10 9 on the button because I'm getting 5 to 1 in position. I'm getting 5 to 1 to hit the straight on the turn against 4 to 1 pot odds but the implied odds are $0,10 so I feel like I will be getting that with two others in the pot. I hit the straight on the turn. Original better checks, so he's pretty much out and the guy behind him who is a regular bets. Question is, should I have raised? His steal percentage on the button and SB is 46% which is pretty high. His VPIP is 20% and PFR 16%.

you are in position and you have one more street so you can just callin if SB tend to bet and raise on river

 

[zekubiki]

played well, you must raise here, defending from flush-dro, but i think, the size of raise should be less, for examle $0,60.

This was on my mind, because I very much like that line. It looks like a desperate bluff.

I was thinking the same thing afterwards. I should have bet less to atleast keep him in the hand. The reason I bet more is because it's 2NL and a lot of players on this limit don't understand how odds work. But seeing as this player is a regular, perhaps I should have bet 0.60.

I think your sizing is great, setup a river shove if clubs brick out. The problem is that you will not get payed off here if you only raise nutted hands [which is a super exploit in micro stakes]. If you are the kind of player that only shows up with the nuts after a raise postflop than its probably better to size way down to get value from a queen because nobody is going to hero call that kind of player.

Dude, no one at 2nl is paying attention.

I can see both sides, as far as whether to call or raise on the turn. MP is definitely folding to a turn raise after cbet and then checking the turn to 2 callers...they might call if you just call but definitely folding to a raise. It's probably more adventageous to target CO entire stack, and your only chance to have a reasonable river jam is to raise turn to at least 0.60 but probably 0.70. I think your raise is probably a touch too big.

i think you should keep lower your semi bluff frequency in multiway pots. even if your opponents betting 1/2 pot, you can find better reraising spots.

I would have done the same in this hand. Well played.
