No reads. Is this the correct way to play against OOP minraisers without reads? I figure he either has a set or AA/KK.

    Why didn't you c-bet the flop? You're repping a premium pair with that PF 3bet and by not betting you're basically playing your hand face-up (well he probably thinks you have AK).

    As played I'd bet more on the turn and fold to the donk bet as you're not beating much and that river card filled a lot of hands.

    Because it's rush and I expect him to call with his whole range as it's a dry flop.

    No need to inflate the pot any further with AJs imo.

    At NL10 pretty much nobody will think about what I'm repping aside from a few regs.

    Idk man, 10NL RUSH is my stomping grounds, and I think that cbetting this flop is definitely a profitable move. Mark all the players in the lobby that are playing 3-4 tables and you'd be surprised how many regs there are. I've played maybe like 70k hands so far and there's at least 10-15 people I have over 1k hands on, and I'm not on my home computer but there's gotta be over 100 opp's I have like 300+ hands on.

    Although in this particular spot, min. raise probably means he is not a solid reg...but still, you have to cbet this board after 3betting pre...he is folding all his overs that aren't spades, and small-med pp's. He probably isn't checking a flopped set on the turn after you check behind the flop. I think it's a lot more likely he hit the flush on the river or is bluffing you since postflop you played this hand very weak and looks like a missed AK.

    You want to cbet the flop to try to take it down right there, and if he flats you can check the turn behind. By checking this flop you are basically giving up your ability to win this pot, save for hitting a J or A.

    Really don't like the 3B pf against a UTG raise with AJs. You're 3-betting with a potential trouble hand against a tight range. I call the minraise to keep the pot small and suck in more opponents for flush draw value.
