2/5 Live Flop Spot
This is an 8 handed 2/5 game that has been playing a little agressive. The first villain is a weaker player who is opening to 25 every single hand and has a tough time folding any medium strength hands after the flop. Villain 2 is another weak player, He flats almost anything regardless of size pre and way overvalues his hands post.
$1500 effective
EP: Villain 1 raises to $25
SB: Hero Raises to $75 w/ AQssQJdc
BB: Villain 2 calls $75
EP: Calls $50
Flop: Ks8s7c
Hero: ?
I am not sure I have a ton of fold equity here, and I am not happy if one of them raises which they have somewhat often on previous flops. Is check calling to keep in worse fds too weak? If we are betting what sizing are we betting and what are we doing when we face a raise or a bad turn card like the board pairing or an off suit 6?

In general this board should be better for their ranges than yours, so I would start with a check.
Check/calling and check/shoving both have their merits. With this spr I think you can start with a check/call and proceed from there.
Awesome, thanks for the response. I bet and I really didn't like it. Wanted to see if most people are checking there. If I check, BB bets like $200 and Villain 1 flats, are we doing anything besides jamming?
i like a jam if it goes bet-call unless u have a read that a bet from player X is always very strong.
if it goes bet - fold or check-bet then id call
If they were more passive id like a bet, alt if we knew we could bet -gii id bet. Since it sounds like they raise flops a decent amount but perhaps not enough for u to wanna bet-gii id start with a check since this hand doesnt play great on board pairs or 9-4 anyway with a low turn spr
thanks for the responses guys!
If you think you have no fold equity I like check/call or check/raise if the bet is of a loose and aggressive player. You shouldn't mind getting it in vs a loose player because you still look decent vs his overall range.
If you decide to bet I like to bet big. 3/4 to Pot to get folds of weaker hands with lots of equity vs you like Kxxx, OEs or weak wraps.
If you get called and get a bad turn, check/fold is fine except with if turn is a T obv. Sucks but getting it in vs two pair or a straight with a FD on turn is not profitable with a SPR of 2.
