WHOAMI196

Im playing a little tight, picking my spots, Villain has been playing tight but seems v passive, shortie is a fish. I float the flop, weak lead by villain on the turn makes me want to raise, so i re-raise it up plus its a great turn card for me to rep(i bet enough, but so that i can fold if shortie decides to jam) Shortie folds, villain calls.........question is do i continue on the river(do i give up?), Am i burning money here.

i wouldnt be floating with a short stack invloved in the pot for the reason that u basically said.. u bet an ammount so that u can fold, but this same bet gives u less fold equity and less room to maneover a decent sized bluff on the river, yes the pots $26 ish but u bet under half pot on the turn. if u bet close to f/p river or overbet this line to me would look weird and suspect and any thinkin reg would jus click call given a weird line..

Dont float flop, villains range is much stronger on that board with fish in pot

Turn, if you raise make it bigger

River I prob give up, although doesnt look like villain likes his hand, might be worth firing 20
