CO: 103 BB (VPIP: 33.33, PFR: 22.22, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 9)

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has K♦ A♦

fold, fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, fold, CO calls 3 BB, BTN calls 3 BB, fold, fold

Flop: (10.5 BB, 3 players) 3♠ K♣ 2♣
Hero bets 7 BB, fold, BTN raises to 14 BB, Hero raises to 36 BB, BTN calls 22 BB

Turn: (82.5 BB, 2 players) T♥
Hero bets 49 BB, BTN calls 49 BB

River: (180.5 BB, 2 players) A♠
Hero checks, BTN bets 107.5 BB and is all-in, Hero calls 107.5 BB

OTR: x/c with and expectation to call missed fds, I think that Kx would not call me on A at river
I bet he has not in range any sets, he would definitely x/r it on turn

Imo there is no need to 3bet OTF. After he calls your 3bet maybe you should slow down instead of betting. Villains hand looks super strong to me and he definitely has some sets here. OTR straight draws just got there. I think it is hard to call even with top 2 when he shoves.

I think we should just call the min raise on flop. We are deep enough and we do not want to play for stacks with TP here.

With TP you dont need to 3bet here otf. You wont know his range and he can have some fd-s in his range as well.

Imo it's a way ahead / way behind situation. Therefore I'd definitely call the flop for these odds and re-evaluate OTT. As played this a VERY tough spot. Questionable if we find enough busted FD's in his range. Since the T and the A are bot no :club: 's it's very unlikely that he would shove with any of these Tx, or Ax :club: combos. You shouldn't forget that you gotta give him QJ and sets as well.

That's the problem with 3betting OTF.. you kinda priced yourself into calling the riverbet. But I'd rather shove myself then because he can have some A :club: X :club: that would probably love to go to showdown instead

I'm not pretty sure why Hero decided op-t won't have any set on river? This guy has pretty wide cc. I'm 100% sure would play for the whole my stack in 100BB stacks , but I don't think this will be nice to play in deep stacks 2pair for 200BB with sets, straight on board. And by 3b with TP on flop you most probably isolate yourself from the better hands. There is a nice VOD by Fallout86 about playing in deep stacks (it was translated in russian, but it is originally in german).

This hand certainly is a fine example why poker is such a fascinating game.
BTN is deep-stacked. He sees that MP who has him covered makes an O/R with a full-stacked caller. He can overcall with almost any two cards.
On the flop the SPR is almost 19. A raisonable speculative hand is playable.
Hero Cbets as pre-flop aggressor. CO folds. Villain tests the waters with a small raise and gets reraised. He now knows that Hero doesn't mind to play for a big pot. If Villain folds he lost just 17bb, which is less than 10% of his stack. If he calls he has 39bb or 20% of his starting stack invested in the hand. Villain calls, presumably because he wants Hero to stay in the hand.
On the turn Hero CBets again. (3bb as O/R, 2/3 pot as CBet, a reraise of 2.5 x R and now a turn-CBet of 60%) This betting pattern and seizing is pretty ABC. Villain knows that Hero has a made hand and probably better. However Villain makes the call.
When a scare card comes on the river, Hero backs down.
If Hero lays an unlikely trap with the nuts :Qx: :Jx: or second nuts :5x: :4x: Villain would have checked behind. But Villian bets! :Qx: :Jx: doesn't fit in the betting on the flop. The second nuts doesn't fit in Hero's opening range. So Villain bets because he can beat all the other hands.

By the way:

Villain can't X/R on the turn for he is on the button and so he is last to act.

i understand why do you raised OTF, and problably it's a good option because of the FD, but i think of getting too much creative with TP isn't correct, mainly because you have a huge stack..the best option was to pot control and call OTF.
