I have been having some trouble lately and I figured I would post a few hands to see how other players would play it out..

My opponent who Cbet was playing 23/20 with a 75% cbet through 80 hands. How was my line and what would you have done differently?

Thanks for any help!

Raise flop and barrel turn; if he shoves i'm not happy but i'm getting it in.

ok hWu thanks for the input. Why is barreling turn a good choice there?

Cos he has lots of weaker hands in his flop continuance range that you can get value from on the turn, as well as not letting clubs draw for free.
Don't know about getting it in on the turn though.

kinda weak line id much rather take this line if we were IP, just because we can bet and take it on the turn if they fold.

oop i much rather c-r BIG, to set up a PSB turn shove.

If he's flatting a c/r on the flop his range isn't too strong going to the turn and we can get him off many hands that are ahead of us OTT.

Flop is fine, being oop i'd prefer a c/f, 80 hands is nothing to justify his c-bet%

call flop. you're already ahead of a lot of his range with just the pair of Q. raising is pretty monkeyish.

I would c/r the flop, if he shove I am going with it. If he calls, well. I might check the turn and get my free card that he is probably gonna give you

Can we call this river? Is he capable of 3 barrelling here?

I think this ace is a semi good card for us, it makes it more likely that he either has one, or doesnt have one. I really wouldnt mind a call on this flop to see what range he does indeed 3 barrel if it includes hands like JJ for instance.

Are you serious?
You're c/f'ing with the NFD and 2PGK here?

What comes to the hand, raise flop and get it in.

My post should say 'I really wouldnt mind a call on this river' not flop.

What I meant was that the 2nd ace on the river makes it more likely he doesnt have one. Thats why I would lean towards a call.

This. Besides what value hands are we repping by c/raising? 99 and AQ? rest of our range is draws.

I think you played this hand fine OP. You have blockers to a lot of missed draws so a fold otr is perfectly fine.
