Pre Flop: ($0.15) Hero is BB with J :heart: A :heart:
2 folds, BTN raises to $0.20, 1 fold, Hero raises to $0.80, BTN calls $0.60

Flop: ($1.65) K :diamond: J :club: K :heart: (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $0.90, Hero calls $0.90

Turn: ($3.45) 2 :heart: (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $1.85, Hero calls $1.85

River: ($7.15) 2 :spade: (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $2.85, Hero folds

x/call F because I let him bet his floats
x/call T same as Flop
River I don`t think is a good spot to bluff for him so I decided to fold. His betsize look honest enough, valuebetting his K.
What do you guys think?

I believe everything is fine. I expect him to check back A-high with some showdown value so this bet looks like a valubet.

Why do you 3 bet pre if you are x calling all the way postflop?

Because PF my hand is stronger than his range. Do you think I am x/calling on every F?

most of the time AJ is not a 3-bet hand
AJ is too strong to 3bet bluff
AJ is also too weak to 3bet for value

I would think of calling or folding preflop. Tend towards calling because raiser is on B

Do you mean stronger than his calling range? Because for 118 hands I would not rely too much on that. Call pre is better imo. TBH I would 3bet this hand preflop only vs. some calling station, that I'm sure will call with many worse hands.

The river fold is a disaster. He can very well mistakenly be value betting thinly any J, TT (I might do just that) and actually be 3-barrel BLUFFING with air precisely because he thinks (correctly) that you are bluffable. You get more than 3:1 and have the nut bluff catcher behind AA and QQ. You should ideally fold some 25% of your bluff catchers here, not more.

Sorry about terrorizing all threads guys. I'll stay away for a while. Maybe:rolleyes:

Call and 3 bet are possible. It depends on the personal feeling of every player. The size of our 3 bet is not good. What stopped you from c-betting? You are afraid he has a Kx?

No. But if I bet he will fold a lot of floats and I won`t seek value from too much worse hands. So I give him the chance to bluff. Anyway, I don`t think he would do a 3barrel bluff here.

I don't mind c-betting and taking down the pot. Is it bad?

No. But as long as we can get more value by letting him float I prefer x/call.

no reason to cb that flop

no reason to think about being exploitable OTR cause in 10NL only 5% of the pool can attack your weak capped range with 3barrels bluff
