Interesting spot based on the possible ranges of both players. The limper from LJ (given it’s 6-handed) has a hand they want to play. But the limp either means they don’t think it’s stronger enough to raise or it’s really strong and they want to trap. For this reason, I would be surprised if hands like QQ or JJ would be in their limping range.
Now facing a single limper, BB would likely raise with the top of their range, JJ+, AQ+. So the check caps his range. But his range still includes every other hand.
Turn decision:
Board: 4c6sQh5h
BB holding 5d7s has a weak pair with a OESD. This hand has enough equity to check/call. A small bet ~35-40% may be fine to get folds from LJ hands that totally missed the board but still have equity against us.
LJ likely continues with good flush and straight draws no matter the raise size. So big bet is bloating the pot OOP with a weak hand. I don’t like this option.
If BB bets 1000 and gets raised to 3500, then this is fold with 5d7s. There are a lot of better hands in BB range that could continue.
Possible value :87, 73, 32, 44,55,66,Q5,Q6,Q4
Possible draws Ah7h, 9h8h, Ah6h, Ah4h, Ah3h, Kh7h. 7h6h
