wow that means you can just literally 3b like a monkey and cbet any flop and take it down mbn.

I'm prob just calling here. Also, nobody has said this, but why not bet the turn after being checked to twice? I usually check back this flop since vils range has a lot of overpairs that aren't folding to a cbet. As played id just call though since the only hand you can squeeze value from a raise with is AQ imo.

lol. I used to be able to. Lately players have gotten a lot stickier. I'm just here to learn how to beat them, though, same as you, so I can pay off my loans once I graduate in ~7 weeks.

Actually that's a very good question that I may not have an answer to. My thinking was a delayed cbet,

Just raise, there are so few reasonable combos that beat you. Give him a chance to make a mistake with something you beat.

Bet flop 100%. By checking the flop you are essentially representing exactly AK, and allowing for him to play perfectly.

I Cbet a similar flop to this and got a fold from QQ because he "smelled KK". You can certainly get some folds from 99-JJ and AQ/AK and whatever garbage he might have called with. Not to mention, worst case scenario you get a call, and end up getting a turn check so you can see a free river.

If I bet flop and get a call, Id check any turn (including an A or K, because you will get a river call from 99-QQ). The only turn id consider betting is a Q.

late to the thread, but this is my exact thought process.

They love to put you on AK any time you 3bet and check the flop. It's a little scary he's leading into you. But, bottom line is you're not folding.

Hero: Young, mid 20s, wearing polo shirt and khaki shorts. playing aggressively isoing limpers in position very often and winning most pots without showdown. villain asked if my name was ____ when he sat down because one of the dealers said i was a good player, i denied and looked as confused as possible and said my name was not ____. i have played with villain maybe twice, not too too sure if he remembers me but i look like a standard young guy overly aggressive player. ~$600

hero dealt AKo in CO. 2 limps, villain makes it $13 in MP, couple folds, hero raises to $45 total, all fold to villain who snap calls and basically beats the folders into the pot.

basically i put villain on 99+ and AQ+ here. I am taking AA/KK pretty much out of his range here because of his snap call and the fact that hes pretty much always 4b jamming or whatever here and i have blockers

flop
337
($90 after drop)
villain checks, hero checks

with villains range being alot of PP i feel like with stack sizes its going to be hard for me to barrel him off of his PP if he will even fold. if he has aq/ak then im winning/chopping and can take it on another street. i feel he will play straight forward and not lead turn without overpair/hitting his pair

turn
8
($90)
villain checks, hero checks

same thought process as flop

river
A
($90)
villain leads for $55, hero???

so im not going to say what i did or even my thought process here i will see what you guys have to say first then put my thoughts in there. thanks
bet flop.

jam river wtf is this ****; you lose to one hand in his "range" that you constructed

Op described v as a bad straight forward player. I doubt v is even considering what op has. Call a 3b, check, check, lead when an A hits smell a lot like AK at best. I put in a raise for value.

P.S. Cbet that flop!

I like putting in a minraise on the river. If he shoves then I guess you have to fold. Given how fast he called preflop, it sounds like AQ/AK. AQ makes a crying call and AK snap calls. You won't get bluffed out by AK if the player is as straightforward as you say. 77 probably fold preflop. 88 or 99 seems to be the cutoff for pairs that will call 3bets IMO.
