This spot seems to happen to me a lot. I am just want to know how most people play it.
It's Day 2C of the Partypoker event. You can buy-in late on Day 2. The whole table has just bought in except the villain who has a 3.5M chip stack. He looks European, probably a grinder in his early 30s. We are 8 handed
Hero has 1.2M
Villain has 3.5M
Blinds 30K/30K w/ 30K ante
Preflop: Hero has T
T
Hero raises to 75K UTG, UTG+1 calls, Villain calls OTB, blinds fold.
Flop: A
9
8
Hero bets 75K, fold, Villain calls
Turn: 4
Hero checks, villain checks
River: 3d
Hero checks, Villain checks
Standard? I'm not sure whether I should be betting or checking this flop, esp 3 handed, OOP. I don't really want to check call 2 streets?
