Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.1/$0.25 No-Limit Hold'em (6 handed)

Known players:
[tg]BU$15.00:///////;SB (Hero)$63.69:///////;BB$26.30:///////;MP2$15.76:///////;MP3$89.15:///////;CO$31.06:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is SB with A:h, T:c.
4 folds, Hero raises to $0.75, BB calls $0.50.

Flop: ($1.5) T:s, K:c, 6:h (2 players)
Hero bets $1.00, BB calls $1.00.

Turn: ($3.5) 8:d (2 players)
Hero checks, BB checks.

River: ($3.5) Q:s (2 players)
Hero checks, BB checks.

Final Pot: $3.5.

The opponent is unknown. He's playing 4 tables of zoom, so must be a reg.

So I was thinking about turn:
Do you think I should barrel to extract value from Tx, QJ, some combos of 89 or 87? Is it likely that he can bluff reraise me with one of these hands? Or is it an easy fold if get reraised?

River:
If I barrel the turn and the river is blank, is an average reg going to pay me one more street with worse hand? Or just check/fold?

Hi,

You need to think about some things here

1. Is villain calling a Turn bet with worse TX?
2. Is he calling with enough draws?

This can actually be solved with pokerstove. Given that the board is rainbow, i really doubt it but you can try.

Equilate your equity (AT) vs a possible Turn calling range and show me your findings here.

thanks
