Hello,

I think that I have completely butchered this hand. Could you please let me know what would have been the best way to play it? Not much info on villain other than I know that he was capable of bluffing.

Preflop we can shove or call. Flop I would usually just x-c as we have some showdown value as well. For same reason I would just call again on turn. Its tough to get Tx+ to fold really. If I wanted to play this aggressive I would just x-r flop.

I'm interested what you was thinking during the hand. Especially what the idea was behind raising the turn.

Cheers,

pre-flop push or call + bet or check raise (post).

OTF I just called bcs of showdown value. OTT I was thinking I could make Tx fold by raising. OTR I tried to represent a completed flush draw or straight with 9J

Now, based on the replies I realize shoving preflop was also an option. As played, I should have either just called flop and turn or x-r or lead flop

On the flop I would always check to the aggressor. Especially HU. Than check/raising or check/call seems both reasonable I think.

A fishy player raises pre, decides to cbet flop and turn on QTx. Even if we have a note that he bluffed, this looks a bit strong. So why not check-call flop check-call turn vs him especially vs these small bets. And check-fold if not hitting.. If we hit King on the river we can again check-call, if we hit straight I would donkbet I think and if we hit Jack, we can check-fold..
