Should I be c-betting this flop 3-way? While i have a gutshot to the nuts, and I would certainly 3b QQ/JJ here, I think V1 has a lot of QQ/JJ/KQs/AQs type hands. Should I just bet/fold 1/3pot? Or is it fine to given up?
Preflop it's perfect.
On the flop you bet and keep betting until villain let you know he's got a big hand. He could have many other hands you beat not just the nuts. You on the other hand have 6 outs as overs plus the 4 outs for gutshot. That's 10 legitimate outs. Why check? - When you 3! preflop what range you think villain put you on? - He's afraid too you may have AA, KK, QQ, JJ, AK, AQs, AJs, ATs, KQs, KJs, KTs, QJs, T9s or even 55 as a lite 3! ..ha ha ha
Yes, I understand what you may be thinking: "Oh, but he could have the same hands too" The thing to always remember is that he will let you know on the turn if he's got a big hand. Either by leading big into you trying to take the leader away from you or he will check-raise so you know when NOT to "pay people off"
Never underestimate yourself and overestimate villain. Always remember that.
