Villain is 34/18/6. I'm playing 22/16/7. We played an earlier hand where he pot-called off 100+bbs on the turn with TPTK + 2nd nut flush draw vs my set, so he'll know that I'm capable of checking strong hands to him. I don't know that he's especially floaty.
Should we be betting this turn ourselves? If so, sizing? Sorry if this is a basic hand, I'm not used to playing deep.
this seems like a tough spot cuz the flop is prob not going to hit your pf raising range a lot so he could def be calling with a KKxx type hand, and if you feel like your behind here there are very few rivers that would put you in shape to call a vbet. wp
If we don't have BD diamonds, does anyone ever consider just checking the flop? I realize this isn't going to hit him much so we have a decent amount of FE with a bet, and we have the potential to turn either top set, but besides diamonds A/Q it seems every other turn card is one that we will have to c/f being so deep....even like a deuce he can pretty much always have and we can almost never have....I suppose we can b/f board pairs but if he's good it becomes really easy to bluff us on those cards... thoughts?
in 2012, people who play plo dont automatically put you on aces when you 3bet them. i would rather check a hand that's less vulnerable and has some equity on perceived bad turns
Just a quick comment from a noob: your 3bet range OOP (which will be lower than <3.5% I presume) totally missed this flop (except for the only combi of T987). Being deep (and maybe even standard) this seems like a check behind, with the main reason you being OOP and having a difficult time on turn and river for bloated pots just as what happened now. I also think opponents are less likely to bluff you because it's easier to call down 2 streets rather than facing 2 barrels after you essentially given up on turn imo..
