Checking turn is OK and against this guy I'd probably fold if he bets without any extra reads he's not that aggro.

ugh no, you are repping a better hand than you have, you don't rep a bluff at all and you're giving him no chance to bluff you.

I don't see how I can fold the flop here. His range is very wide at the flop.

check/fold turn if your read is just the stats you have on him.

also, what was the purpose of your turn bet? value? protection? because most of the time, this turn bet is essentially a bluff except for the rare cases when he's calling you w/a smaller over pair or a flush draw+overs.

and your plan for river if he shoved? i assume fold?

the bet on the turn was for protection, I was thinking he has overs a lot here and also FD.

Why would he call the flop with overs? I mean I also always think I'm getting floated but most guys at Party SSNL aren't that tricky. And if they are and you don't notice it, well NH guy.

flush draws are such a small part of his range, and if he has overs you allow him to play perfectly when you bet the turn.

also, keep in mind if he has a flush draw, there is still a good chance he pushes over your turn bet, forcing you to fold the best hand.

yeah, it's true that he get a easy fold with overs when I bet turn but do I want to give him a free chance to hit on the river? Any overcard on the river will be a scarecard and would give him an opportunity to bet regardless of if he hit or not.

then you'll have to make a tough decision based on a read you might have on this player. personally, i'd be willing to call any non A or K river.

edit: the more i think about this, against an unknown TAG, the money you put on the flop should usually be the last $$$ you put in the pot.

Whats Buttons 3bet range? How does he play AK or a draw if you c/r this flop? Would he double barrel the turn with AK?

With no reads I'd just c/c the turn or c/f it. Donking accomplishes nothing.
