Flop: ($3.80, 2 players) 8♠ 7♠ Q♦
Hero bets $2.80, MP raises to $6.00, Hero calls $3.20

Turn: ($15.80, 2 players) 3♣
Hero checks, MP bets $12.20, Hero ?

Had not played many hand against this guy, but had marked him as a reg, he had like 22 Vpip 18 Pfr Ft3bet 63 % (5/8 hands) a 100 hands total.

What should i do on flop? Iam thinking he might have som draws aswell as 99-1010 that i beat. When i make the bet/call on flop how should i react on turn, turn misses all draws and if i were ahead on flop iam problably ahead now aswell. Iam pretty new on these SH tables and playing against those regs.

Hey timotej,

3betting for value is too thin vs an MP opener. This is therefore essentially a bluff preflop. It's ok to bluff, but hand is probably strong enough to flat call also.

Given that we are bluffing preflop we can literally just bet/fold flop here because we are not that excited about playing AQ vs our opponents pf continuing range.

If we do call the flop we are really just hoping villain shuts down on the turn. When he fires again folding is likely good given the info we have.
