100/200INR Online . Decisions on Flop and Turn.
SB: 25000 (Villain)
BB: 11000
UTG: 8800
HJ: 24000 (Hero)
CO: 50000
Don't have enough info on players as it's an anonymous table. But the table is neither too passive nor too aggressive.
UTG limps, Hero pots to 900 with As 6s Jd 8d.
CO, SB, BB, UTG call. Pot: 3800.
Flop: 5s 4d Qs.
Check to Hero. Hero pots 3800. CO folds. SB calls. BB, UTG fold. Pot: 11400.
I decided to pot because I picked up Nut FD with gutty and backdoor FD. I thought it's a board on which a lot of hands would like to continue. I wanted to inflate the pot with 5 players in the hand. And I have great visibility on Turn and River. Players here are capable of shoving with worse combo draws, and I am very happy to call a shove. Worse case, I am roughly 32-35% favourite. Please let me know if my thought process is incorrect.
Turn: 2d. Pot: 11400.
SB checks. Hero checks behind.
I checked behind because a couple of straights got there. And I wanted to see a free River.
But while reviewing the hand later, I thought it's a mistake. Because in these games, players are always potting the turn with 3,6. They almost never slow play on such a board. Yes, he could have A3, but he has far more other combos here. So In a pot of 11400, I should have bet 7600. A lot of times, I would be taking down the pot with that bet, and even if there's a call, a lot of cards improve my hand that could beat straights and slow played sets as well.
Please let me know if there are any mistakes in my thought process and play.

I like bet/calling it off on the turn if raised. I’ve got to think you have enough fold equity on the turn to make it profitable and if he is nutted, you may have like half the deck as an out on the river. I don’t think checking is the end of the world but I prefer betting here.
yes, I realised it later while I was reviewing my session.
Pre I think I prefer a fold, although I would over limp on the button. Our hand is highly disconnected and frankly quite junky. Of course, PPT ranks it in the 10th percentile so I guess raise or call are probably both fine.
I am checking back the flop. Also your pot figures are off, if it is 5 to the flop for 9 that should be 4500 in the pot.
Thanks for the reply. Actually these are games where one has to maintain a certain VPIP to keep getting access, for which one has to widen their range. So keeping that in mind, I thought this hand could/should be played.
It would be great if you could share your reasoning for checking back the flop. What kind of combos would you bet the flop with apart from QQ with SDFD? If you know that the population is such that they can stack off with pair and SD/FD, would you still check?
Thanks again...
flop half pot.
