C-betting 9♥ 8♥ 7♠ as HJ

This is a HJ vs BB · Single-Raised Pot — the pot is heads-up with BTN as the preflop aggressor, and the flop is 9♥ 8♥ 7♠ (Middling connected). The c-bet frequency here is 53%, which the texture explains almost entirely.

This is a middle-ground texture: some range advantage, but enough draws and connectivity that a pure range bet is too loose. The solver picks its spots — betting the hands that want protection or fold equity and checking back the marginal made hands and total air that has nothing to gain.

Read the grid by cell colour: teal is the small c-bet (1.4bb), amber a larger bet, and the dark fill is a check-back. A split cell is a mixed frequency. The hands worth drilling are the checks inside an otherwise-betting region and the bets inside a checking region — those mixed decisions are where most postflop EV is won or lost.
