Message: [QUOTE="300HPGOD, post: 6463680, member: 305911"] Agree with others that you need to bet here so then we should discuss sizing. You dont have a lot of hands with either villain and it makes a difference if those hands are from this tourney or another tourney. Guessing they are from this tourney since they are both 28 hands so you all were probably at the same table for a while. I bring this up because we should want to make a bet here that looks like our "normal" bet to an opponent. The last thing we would want would be for any opponent to start wondering why the bet is sized the way it is. Here, you go really small (under a 1/3rd) and being this deep I dont like it. I think that sizing is fine if we were playing shallower since it is harder to get a call when everyone is short stacked due survival thinking. When everyone is deep they are thinking more about implied odds (if they have a hand at all) and will possibly call a bigger bet since there is more to win on later streets. Therefore, unless we have been betting this small for a few hands that villains have seen, I like going a bigger amount here to somewhere near half pot (or whatever your default sizing is if you have one) just because it looks more normal or more like we are just clicking buttons. That might make backdoor draws call more often vs going really small when deep stacked and setting off some alarms and villains thinking "why they betting this small?" All food for thought for future hands I guess since we can never pinpoint exactly how villains think but I know when I am in these types of spots I want to make a bet that blends in. One that doesnt make anyone think it is out of the ordinary. Of course, I am doing that similar sizing with hands that are not nearly as strong so it has the added bonus of balancing using bet sizing. [/QUOTE]
