CO playing 73/23/0.7: Super fishy but all over the place. One time he 3 bet 54o from SB. He is actually the button...not sure why the HH calls him CO.
SB 54/7/0.6 also very fishy

Thoughts: CO can have a fairly wide range based on his SB 3! from the prior hand but there are very few combos with a 7 that he would be 3 betting so I feel like I am ahead most of the time here. Play it any differently?

If probably just keep jamming the flop, but fine as played.

Once it’s HU on the flop, I like your decision to call and x/r the turn. Now that villain 3 bets your turn x/r, calling down seems appropriate since you’ve noted that this villain can easily have a 7.

Is the idea behind waiting to check raise the turn HU that you are so far ahead and board is so dry that you get an extra half a big bet from a turn check raise rather than fast play flop?

I like the hand though. He had a 7 a tiny piece of the time, oh well.

That's my thought on it. I am not giving up too much by risking a free card and I don't expect him to take a free card very often.

When he three bets the turn I am vomiting a bit in my mouth but can't fold so I just go into showdown mode.

Makes sense and thanks for sharing. I've been trying to think about my wait for turn range so that was helpful.

I prefer jamming the flop here. It looks super strong to check raise the turn and being 3bet is a disaster. What do you really beat here?

Ax, A spazzed TT-QQ but not much else. Are you saying you fold to his 3! on the turn?

The hand was played well.

I don't like 3 betting the flop because I see too many players raise for info and then fold it right there. I wanna keep him on the hook a little longer and hide our strength.

I don't hate checking the flop and trying trap the SB in for an extra bet. He could be defense checking a big pocket pair. In spots like this where I am very often way ahead I don't mind milking a few extra bets by underplaying my hand. In most situations we are gonna bet and not get raised by the button so the SB would be calling anyways. Basically, I don't think it's too risky of a slowplay. I also feel like the button will bet here a lot given the two checks before his action. I don't think it's a disaster if the flop gets checked. My plan would be to just call a flop bet and CR the turn. I would change my plan on this particular turn card and donk. I think the way the hand was played originally is fine and probably standard but if you have a good read you can get a little creative I think.

Absolutely not. Pot is way too big and we have outs against anything except quads or aces. Not to mention we could have the best hand somehow.
