was thinking about x/r but I only have one set there... so my range would be mostly bluff I think, I don't x/r most here for value because I 3bet 9Ts and KQs preflop

I'm not sure if I should fire this blank but I decided I would, I would play most value hands this way. "reg" 27/19 59h no reads

I really like your thoughts and comments on the hand. Im more reading than posting as Im a lot weaker but keep on posting like this! Thank you
thank YOU
I would c/r flop because the hand has no showdown value and if he just folds hands like Q9o or whatever airball that's a great result for your hand, but I think as played is good too. I'm curious what the best hand you think he'll fold is - tough to say with no reads I guess but maybe AT?
AQ wuld have a hard time but I'm not sure either
Well, 96s cold call on the BB is a little bit weak for me... (on NL10)
And also the postflop play is pretty loose for me without any read.
I would have x/r OTF as tom said.
Even though its a flop I would like to checkraise on (since its so dynamic), you make some valid points for opting not to do so. If you feel like your ranges are so constructed that you cannot represent enough strong hands to raise, then its very sensible to play your entire range more passively. That said, if you cant represent a good number of strong hands on this flop, I would reconsider your range construction preflop. AJ, 77, A7, J7s (and even offsuit) are all hands to be profitably played versus such a small opensize. AJ (esp. suited) and 77 are valid 3bet candidates, yet they also play perfectly fine as a flatcall. The same applies for T9s.
Because this flop is so dynamic, hands even as strong as 77 decrease immensely in value on a lot of turn and river runouts. So there is a strong incentive to fastplay them. Even more so, since you don't leave your checkcall range too vulnerable because of it. So many x/c hands promote to flushes, straights and/or 2P.
To balance your value checkraises, you also like to include different kind of draws in the checkraise range. Strong draws (NFD, FD+SD, pair +FD) and weaker ones (gut shots, weak FD's, backdoor flush draws etc.). Most important part is not over or underdoing this. You want to be able to represent having hit as many turns as possible (in both ranges!).
So for me, 96s qualifies as a valid candidate for checkraising flop, yet I wouldnt do it more than say 30% of the time.
On the turn, This should be your highest frequency X/r bluf. Hands with no SDV yet a lot of equity benefit substantially from being played agressively. Plus you can represent T9 and 88 OTT, so you want a raising range there. (Still very dynamic board!) Scale up your sizing though on such a dynamic board.
OTR, you block T9, which is important. And you don't block AK/AQ/AT, which make up a good portion of his folding range OTR. I bluf.
Well played hand David.
hey very cool evaluation man I liked it! thanks I would give it double like if I could :)
