Just played this hand. Villain was playing 31/25 over 100+ hands. Att steal was 54% and fold to 3Bet was 100% (4/4).
Considering his Fold to 3Bet stat I gave him a range of AQ+ and TT+. I knew I wasn't going to fold out the broadways with a F cbet but once I got some more equity on the T I thought I could manage to fold out those hands and then... :)

Preflop is fine, I think. Given that we have a GS, BD nut FD and an overcard, I think it's ok to cbet this board. When we did it, I feel like we need to cbet this turn also. Not sure about the fold equity we have, but he probably could fold some broadways that he called the flop with. When we hit the river, we have to bet. There is a chance that he has the best hand, but I think we will mostly be ahead in this situation.

I do not think we have to cbet flop here. PPs and overcards are calling and we just make the pot bigger.

If I didn't cbet, villain would have most likely bet a huge portion of his range and I think I would have been faced with an even tougher decision.
Alleen86, you Romanian mate? My thought process was similar to what you wrote. It was close I guess. Thanks for the feedback!:)

And what so precious do you hold so you can't fold it? :)

Nitrol, I think you are right after all. We have little equity and seeing he flatted a 3bet for the first time we can safely assume his range to be strong and therefore I think it would have been better to just give up on the flop.

I am Croatian. ;)

As the hand is concerned, if we check, we have to fold if he bets.
