Message: [QUOTE="300HPGOD, post: 6780149, member: 305911"] I think you already hit on this in your post but yes you need to raise larger or a limper there. They have a 25 BB stack so we want to corner them a bit with a raise and see how they react. Depending on villain we are not or should not be worried about a 4 bet jam by them as we would be calling it off due to it being 25 BBs. So yes not making it 3.5x or larger is a mistake. On the flop you monopolize the board so I wouldnt go as large as you did but I don't think its a mistake really to bet the size you did. A lot of Ax will still call this bet so its not bad but imo its better to bet like 35-40% pot here and possibly get some floats. Turn is large mistake by you. Calling villain has a less likely chance of having Ax or Kx since we can account for two each and they of course could have some 7x here. Your sizing commits them so villain would never just flat here but would go all in and with the amount you put in the middle you are committing yourself to the pot. Given that the board is badugi I think its best to check back here as you could induce some bluffs on the river and if you are behind to 7x you will lose less. The times you are up against Ax you are losing some value by checking back turn but the river will be bet either by villain leading or you betting if they were to check so you wouldn't get their whole stack but you would get a decent chunk of it. Its a small price to pay imo for the times you lose less when villain has 7x or just will fold turn when they floated flop. Now if you really don't believe villain or aren't that scared of 7x when it turns then I think its fine to bet the turn IF you are going to call it off. Its not my preferred way of playing the hand but I think it can be fine especially against certain types of villains. However, as you already know you cant bet the turn for any kind of decent sizing with the intention of folding to a jam. [/QUOTE]
