Flop
J♥ T♦ 7♣

Turn is a mix between checking and small/medium semi-bluffs with A-high and a gutshot; both lines are reasonable.

Flop Analysis

Flop Jh Td 7c rainbow is semi-wet and connects well with both ranges. Solver prefers a lot of checking here, but mixing in a small c-bet with A-high and a gutshot is fine. The 2BB stab into 6.5BB is a reasonable sizing choice.

Turn Analysis

Turn 8s upgrades us to a gutshot with A-high and keeps the board very connected. Solver mixes between checking and betting here; a small or medium semi-bluff with this combo is reasonable. The 8 also improves some of BB’s range, so checking and taking a free card is also a solid option.
