I don't think reads are too important in this hand but lets just say he is a standard reg playing anything from 22/19 to 24/20, with an UTG Open of 15%.
I always find myself in this spot with low overpairs like {TT on 9xx} or {88 on 5xx}.
Is this just a spot where we need should be calling down OOP+IP to the river most of the time?
There doesn't seem to be much value in a raise on the flop or turn against very strong ranges, but maybe I am losing some value by not raising some percentage of the time?
Theory wise, how should we play?
