Flop
3♦ 8♥ 9♠

When holding a premium overpair on a low, connected board, use large sizing to extract value from draws and top pairs while protecting your equity.

Flop Analysis

Betting is correct, but the sizing should be larger. On this semi-wet texture, we want to charge BTN's straight draws and 9x heavily.

Note: Sizing is too small; solver prefers a large 75% pot bet to maximize value and protection on a board with multiple straight draws.

Turn Analysis

The 4c is a total brick. We must continue our aggression to set up a river shove, as our overpair remains the effective nuts against most of BTN's calling range.

River Analysis

With the SPR so low, we have a pure value shove. We lose to rare sets or straights like 67s, but we are ahead of all 9x and stubborn pocket pairs often enough to commit.
