Both villains here are LAGs. This is the reason I did not semi-bluff the flop: there was no chance of getting 2 folds.
My question is on my flop coldcall. My J outs were clearly good, and I had a backdoor flush draw which was probably good. Let's say 5 full outs there. MP2 might easily have raised here with TP to drive me out. In that case, my overcards give me 5 more outs. Of course, he might also have a set or two pair.
All these considered, I called. What do you think?
The turn call was for the flush draw, and then the flop call was for my TP. Some might value bet here, but I suspected that MP2 might have more than tens, and knew he would bet his tens anyway. So I lose nothing by c/calling, but save a bet when I'm behind.
