Another big pot Bonanza:

utg spew monkey pre passive post raises, some calls I three button with kk, blinds call. Bb is good tag. 6 to flop

Flop is 3JKss. I bet, bb calls, utg raises. Call call. Someone who folded exposed a king. Everyone else folds so three handed

Turn is 5x. Utg bets, I raise, bb pain calls, utg three bets, I cap, call call. River is 6s and check check to me

Pot is 24 big bets

Some thoughts: I just can’t see bb checking a flush but what else does he have. Utg has 33 here 97 percent of the time and won’t fold

QT?

I understand the reluctance, but I think you have to bet.

Maybe a better question; what do you do if BB check-raises? It's almost certainly a fold, but that's going to be tough to do.

Then that pushes the river action towards a check, as you're risking two bets to earn (possibly) one.

I would think a flush donks the river because its such an obvious draw that comes in so I lean towards betting. But I’m never ever folding in this pot and if you feel the inclination to do so just check.

+1

Might chk/call river but would UTG bet when checked to large enough %?

Not certain BB range yet as pot large enough to have wider range than normal imo.

If same Mon game, spew monkey loose pf passive post doesn't in my experience.

Painful if it comes back 3 bets but I'd bet call river for 2 bets.

None of this makes any sense. Hero is in position, both other players have already checked.

I bet this river all day long.

I think this is the same situation as your 66 hand.

I also 3! flop since it’s MW.

To be honest, I didn’t see that the bb called the first flop bet. I think I still like a slowplay here though because I can blow bb off a draw on turn (or not)

I get what you mean, if I didn’t see that BB called and thought it was HU, I’d much prefer waiting to the turn for many opponents. I think my standard line MW is to 3! flop so I can bet/3! the turn. Want to put more into it as equity favourite.

Think it extracts max value by slow play on flop. Unfortunate if you lost this hand but optimistic you bet called river & won

I think it's a big mistake not to 3 bet the flop. Why not go for the max? It could get capped and you still have a chance to raise the turn. A spade on the turn could slow down the action.

I would bet/call the river absent a read or tell.

Tldn high % UTG will call 2 cold on turn ATC with chance to price out BB on turn or force slim -EV call on turn by BB which ninefingershuffle enabled imo.

OT: How much did you win this session ninefingershuffle

If I bet there’s no way I fold. It’s one of those spots where I’ll think about betting and then just check back. I think you win here almost always after it goes check check, and utg will always call when you bet. So bet/call > check >>>>>>>>>>>>>> bet/fold

It would be 40 to win 1k. Maybe he misread his hand or accidentally mucks his cards or bluffs in desperation.

Well $40 on the flop is the same as $40 on the turn and I save money on a card I don’t love.

"Flop is 3JKss. I bet, bb calls, utg raises. Call call. Someone who folded exposed a king. Everyone else folds so three handed".

I misread the above sentence. I thought it went UTG raise and couple players called and then you called. I missed that it was just 3 handed after the flop. I can see just calling now. Also, I don't think it would be crazy/bad for the BB to check/raise the river with a flush given the strength you have shown.

I checked it back and won against what I would assume is QT and 33. But every bet counts.

Likely so, I guessed QT right away. Too bad we don't know for sure though. Did you unnecessarily fastroll? Or play in one of the few rooms where you were supposed to show first?

I always fastroll when I think I’m good. The 33 showed.
