NL400 - QKo 3BP OOP

The problem is that you only get bonus Strategy points if you are a bronze member and that isn’t the case I’m afraid. You can always make an account on poker room you don't have an account yet or buy a status upgrade.

I have no experience on NL400, but it’s wise to give some reads or stats on the villain to give feedback on this hand.

Don't you get bronze status by passing some sort of test?

I may not cbet flop.

what were you gonna do on the turn if you dont get a club ? call any bet?

I can't be arsed to setup a new account somewhere I won't even bother to play.

As for the hand.

Regarding the flop Cbet, I'd say take it or leave it. Smaller bet-size, reflecting a very merged range which is appropriate for this scenario and board. How you play the flop doesn't really matter that much as long as you understand how the ranges interact and how the size of your bet (assuming one size) will determine the structure of your range.

As for the turn. The initial plan is simple, the hand is too strong to muck on the flop, and whether I continue on the turn or not depends on the board as well as what villain does, understanding that most of our EV comes from when villain shuts down on the turn (which although, we can't expect it to happen frequently, will happen at times), coupled with the EV we collect on the turn that are favorable enough that we can continue against another bet.

I'm sure that with a different perspective you might find more to it than that, but I just picked the hand out of random and find little interesting about it.

Look at that, seems I am now bronze.
