OESD - Small pot, 2 fish, lead?

[bcunha]

Both fishes have ridiculous stats, 50% VP$P with 1 AAF. I didn't realize how small the pot was until right after I made my flop bet.

Betting the flop and turn is just fine against 3 opponents. You're really hoping they fold to the turn bet, but it's a good semibluff and something I do frequently against a small number of opponents.

And against two opponents?

So even with small pot odds like this, it's useful to semibluff this? Only when the connectedness is obvious? I generally play the same way, I had just never thought about it before.

Haha. Yes, whoops, I was actually advocating betting the turn against two opponents, especially in these situations when there was little response to the flop bet.

Against 3, I think it's closer to a check/call.
