The call ITT seems right because the pot odds where 21% and i was given 27% but the bet before i don't know. Villain was laggy postflop so maybe i shoud use pos for the free card but anyway it impresses me why he shoved second pair in a commited pot for me?

I would usually 4bet preflop but calling sometimes is fine.

Flop call would be my standard as we have the bdfd and good showdown value.

Turn I think is a clear check, we have showdown value, lots of equity vs the hands that have us beat and the board is wet enough for him to be really happy about x/raising overpairs. I think with your range you either want to bet smaller for protection or bigger and more polarised. I would be interested to know what people think about having 2 bet sizes here (and what solvers say about the difference in ev between 1 size and 2).

Once you bet you obviously have to call.

I'm officially joining the "don't post results" team too!

I would usually agree that flop is a call but for that sizing it just seems like we have a lot of better hands to call on this flop: e.g. 9x, 99, pocket pairs and club draws.

I mean I could be swayed if you say it's the only A high bdfd we call against this size as it's the nut A high but personally I wouldn't expect villain to slow down much at all on turns when he pots it so calling for showdown value might be a little optimistic.

Obviously that gets blown out the water when we see that villain checks but I still the the point has some merit!
