SB: $24.24
Hero (BB): $31.79

SB posts SB $0.10, Hero posts BB $0.25

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.35) Hero has K♣ K♠

fold, MP raises to $1.00, fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to $3.10, MP calls $2.10

Flop: ($6.30, 2 players) T♦ 7♥ T♣
Hero bets $2.60, MP raises to $13.82, Hero ???

Relevant Stats/Reads:
MP looks nitty. He folded to a 3bet 0/1 times so far.
WTSD: 38
WWSF: 63 (what may be just the result of his overall nitty style)

How would you interpret his flopraise? I just thought it makes no real sense. On the other hand why should he bluff so big? I didnt give him a lot Tx in his hands and rather see him 4betting AA preflop that he may raise on the flop for value. Are you guys doing a tight herofold on the flop though?

This play really polarizes his range. Depending on gameflow, I would call it down for information.

Hi,

111 hands isn't an efficient sample to guess if MP could defend IP hands like JTs or QTs here, but still, if he does it's just 4 combos, and he also could play much more than 4 combos weirdly here (like 98s or even QQ-JJ who could be tempted to put you on AK regarding the small sizing flop) so i would always call

Raise here and espacially this sizing make me think that he's not that good and could be playing hands like QQ-JJ like this

Yep.
The raise is so big in this dry board that really seems like he wants u to fold ur hand.

Our cbet is on the small size, is there a reason for that?
I think JT, QT, KT may not be in villain's rangebut who knows. And the size of the raise is big on flop and I am not a fan of buying expensive info.
I would fold.

Expect a wider range of hands to call.

With this small cbet we can induce, and now do not what to do when raised.
Plus villain is tight, he called 3b and his range is not that wide.

Sure, but betting small still makes more combos to call in this flop.

I think what is calling this size will call $0.50 more for 1/2 psb. It is not crutial.

1/2 still a not large bet. And the smaller the bet, the more hands villain can (and should) be calling.

Do I speak with the radio or something else?... :)
I know that. I do not agree that here we should do this as villain can call abit bigger bet with the same range.
I want to hear the opinion of the initial poster. Yours I know - wide range will call us.
