Preflop: Hero is SB with Q K
3 folds, BTN raises to $0.62, Hero calls $0.52, BB folds

Flop: ($1.49) J 7 2 (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $1, Hero calls $1

Turn: ($3.49) 8 (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $2.50, Hero folds

18/10 over 78 hands, AF 1

I'm picking we can just 3bet pre w/ a depolarised range here?

Postflop I was thinking this is a typical flop to bet and we can just float oop w/ two overs and backdoor straights

Hi legand73

Preflop: vs a small raise we can still 3-bet

postflop: Calling flop is definitely fine here but have a plan. Do you check/call any turns? Most turns? Do you donk t urn? Do you raise any turns?

What's the plan besides call one because the board is dry?

Fair enough. Well I guess we can x/c turn on a K or a Q and then lead river.

Can think about either x/raising or leading an A perhaps. and x/fold blanks

There are 6 K/Q in the deck so that means that roughly 12% of the time you'll see one on the turn.

The other 88% of the time it will be another card which makes your plan less ideal.

Of course you have to factor in the times he checks back turn and you are attacking the river (what cards to attack, for how much, etc.)

An Ax would make a good candidate for a bluff raise for sure.
