some thoughts :
# 3bet could be a bit bigger ( something like 400ish ), although I don't think that so deep you get more chances of a fold. If there are more people involved in the pot than I would certainly raise bigger.
Flop is not the most ideal ever seen, because he's paired i beat all 1 and 2 pair combo's , and been beat by 88 , 55 and eventually A5 ( don't see them raise or call pre with other 5x hands). There is a flushdraw on the board so i bet 2/3 pot for protection en value.
Both call so what could the have ???? QQ+ is not likely because they will 4 bet that pre, remains 55-JJ, A8o, A5o,A8s, A8s, AKo, AKs, and some suited spade combo's like KQ, KJ, KT, QJ, QT, JT, T9, 76.
The King of clubs on the turn changed not much, so i bet again 2/3 pot for protection and value. Utg gives up and Btn calls.
The 2 of hearts on the river is a blank and i figure i'm only beat by 88, 55 and A5.
Is it now better to go for pot control and check/call, or even check/fold ( cause we are so deep)????
My line now is so strong that villain usually has something if he calls, and with a check on the river, I'll give him possibly a chance to turn his missed fd( when he's on a draw) into a bluff.
But when we intend to call a river bet anyway , is't it than not better to bet self ....... if villian fold is that also fine.
Don't know what best play is ![]()
