Flop Analysis
On T65r, BU has a slight range advantage, but the texture is very draw-heavy and our hand has a strong gutshot plus backdoor hearts. Checking our entire range here is the default, and 87s fits perfectly into that plan.
After flop check-raise getting called, the 4s turn gives us a strong straight; we should bet big (around 1.2x pot) to maximize value from worse straights and strong draws.

Facing a small c-bet, 87s is a strong candidate to check-raise. We have a lot of equity, and the board is very dynamic, so we can comfortably call or raise. Solver prefers a larger raise size (about 1.2x pot) to put real pressure on BU’s one-pair and draw-heavy holdings.
The 4s turn completes our straight on a board that’s now very connected. After BU calls our flop check-raise, their range is weighted toward strong draws and some made hands. We should bet big here—around 1.2x pot—to extract maximum value from worse straights and strong draws, and to make it expensive for them to continue with their draws.
