Stats on villain (229 hands): 25/21, attempt to steal 43, fold to 3bet 67% (6/9), fold to cbet 57%, fold to turn cbet 25%

Pre-Flop: Kinda outside of my normal 3betting range. I am trying to expand my comfort zone with this sort of thing however, and with his fold to 3bet stat I thought I would give this a go. After the hand I saw that his att to steal wasn't particularly high however, and PT4 had noted that he calls 3bets in position with a range of JJ, AQs, T9s, so I should really have looked at that during the hand.

Flop: We flop well here so I am betting for value, I think there's a lot he can continue with.

Turn: Same as flop, though I make the sizing a bit higher, perhaps not enough still given the double flush draw.

River: I don't want to fire a third barrel and get raised... hand is a little too strong to fold here unless he really smashes it. I felt check/call was okay and when he makes a significant bet I think we have to call considering the way the hand has played out? He could have QQ, 99 or a flush... but there are so many other combos that we beat aren't there? TT, JJ, KQ, QJ, AQ....

Hi vaul,

Given you are in a spot where you get called a lot vs 3-bets you can 3-bet a better range.

As played you can just shove the river yourself because most villains will check back worse hands and they rarely have anything they can bluff with.

so when you check/call river you are hoping they can valuebet worse which generally isn't the case (and we might have gotten lucky here).

But if you bet you easlily get called by any Qx.

67% fold to 3 bet is not low...
