re: Poker & $25 NLHE 6-max: BvB Aggro fish... flop top n' bottom
BvB are brutal. I've been using 3.5 or even 4 BB sizing opening from the blinds and so far I like it. That my only comment about pre.
Flop I'm on board with bet and sizing.
I understand the logic for the turn x/r but I don't like using it on this texture. V is never folding his draws for our sizing and could already be there. If he does find a x behind we we are letting a wet board get potentially worse OOP with only 4 outs to improve. He can rep either the flush or the straight depending on the run out. If the turn was rainbow it's closer but I still don't like going for the x/r on a 3 to a straight board when V has all of his T9 combos and also some ATo combos. Per description I'd expect this V to 3 bet all the sets (except 33), ATs, and KQs, maybe even KQo BvB, but you haven't given 3B stats. For this reason I'd prefer a bet / bet / x line on this run out. Unless V overbet jams river we still get tons of value when ahead and save ourselves from sick spots where we run into the top of Vs range or a gross bluff.
As played, the draws missed the river. We got our x/r in on the turn for 3 streets of value and I think we want V to bluff this river. You didn't mention how likely he is to call down light so river seems a bit thin (going for a fourth street). I would default to x/c here to let his bluffs try to steal as we have a lot of Ax that hit one pair and a gutter. I also cant imagine V has many bluffs here but you did label him an aggro fish. Something that blocks the nuts like KTo with no spades to unblock your missed draws might do this but maybe I'm just looking too hard for bluffs at that point.
