Next significant pot I play I get two limpers from seat 1 (nothing to worry about limping a lot ep) and seat to my right. I make it 800 with AJ. Colder caller form button (fishy fisherson). UTG and limper fold. Heads up and the flop comes 866 two spades. I lead for 1300 into 2k. He flats. 4 hearts on the turn. I decide not to double barrel as I'm unsure whether he has a draw or a pair ( and I know he isn't folding a pair) so check it to him. He bets 1500 which immed tells me he has it. I fold AGAIN and he shows me 88. MBN
Why bet the flop if he isn't folding a pair?
More to do with board texture than anything. I think I have to c-bet this flop almost 90% of the time- obv if I have a big overpair I probs go broke to this player. I think his cold calling range is pretty huge as well and my c-bet will get thru most of the time. If he checks the turn I'll probably be able to put him on some sort of draw and re-evaluate what to do on the river.
Playing the hand OOP obv poses this problems- it's tough when a fish keeps hitting against you and your OOP against him
