Villain had just sat, no reads.
On the Flop I think this bigger bet is standard on this wet, dynamic board.
On the Turn villain donks for full-pot and, with this SPR, we have no room to maneuver; we commit or fold. It looks to me that villain's actions are consistent with a turned straight that is maybe afraid of the two flush-draws. We have not much in the way of improvers – we even block a Q and villain might have a T in his hand.
This hand made me think on how would we play this spot when villain checks the Turn. Do we check back, and risk also giving a free card to draws, or do we bet? Is a bet always committing? Would anyone bet/fold? (I guess sizing would have to be small with this SPR).
Thank you for your insights.
