again double barrel question

[djoe77]

Villain is 46/13 and 6 tables

I figured, turn is a good card to double barrell, it improved my hand, but at the same time it's gonna hit his range.

Then he checks it, and I could put a 1/2pot bet..but will he fold?It's not as "scary" as a turn bet(for him)

I think you could definitely fire the turn

I don't ever fire triple barrels, just not sure when to do it profitably. Is this an ok spot to do it?

[urbansprawler]

Yes, this would be a good spot but villain is loose and this is 2NL so those 2 things definitely make a triple barrel -EV.

I think the second one has a lot of leverage and you could force him off a lot of PP's/5's.

I think either's fine. I'd like reads before I do this, because I think if I second barrel, I would like to triple barrel often, but the thing is he may put us on an FD or something. Oh, btw, we may have the best hand, which is one reason why I may check.

I think checking's not bad, really. With more reads this can potentially be a good barrel spot, no doubt, but I don't think, vs a relative unknown, it's clearly +EV at all, so you might as well check and see what he has.

With AJ on Q52, I don't think I am beat that often, tbh, though barrelling will fold him off 66-88 type hands loads, so as I said, it's not bad.
