  2. shove. mayb 4bet him to like 1k-1.1k w/ intention to call shove when he 3bets u instead of flat. its alot of bb to get in, but it is bvb and a 24, so i dunno.
  3. I make the std 3x preflop, he 3bet you small which is wierd cuz hes giving u odds to call with a wide range of hands. Some might 4bet this in a blind battle but early on with a decent stack and prolly not much of a read seems kinda spewy cuz ur turning ur hand into a bluff whenver he 5bets all in and its a gross spot to have to fold. So i like the call pre, on the flop u got a ton of equity against his range, if he has like 88-JJ with ur in good shape, even if he has QQ+ ur not that bad with the draws u have. Since ur oop I think its better to try to get ur $ in on this flop so id rr to 2400 and obv get it in if he shoves
  4. do you think we have any FE here with him betting pot?
    though its obv a very big draw i feel by doing that i am pretty much calling a 3000 chip bet with a pot of 3800 with v low blinds

  5. Im always getting it in on that flop.
  6. thats the plan...u want action with ur hand on this flop imo...good spot to chip up
  7. His line smells like a big pair. Get it in and off to the races!
  8. fold pre shove flop
     
  9. if you are going to flat this raise ( which i dont like ) there is no way you arent getting it in on that flop. but folding pre seems best.
