you can make an argument for Check call the river, thats probably the best play. Check folding turn is okay too but then its too weak if we just c bet with all of our AK/AQ and give up on the turn.

B/F river, he should have no bluffs here and AQ shouldn't do this

what do we do with QQ-KK on this river?

why should we fold our entire range except for AA yoshi?

UTG vs CO 3b I don't expect him to be calling the turn very light so i'd c/f turn. Obviously it'd be a different situation if positions were different.

Given we do barrel turn, river is pretty interesting. He almost never has aces due to card removal + preflop action, nor does he have a 2 or an 8 very often.

Unless he has something stupid like quads, then I think we can b/c river because I can't really see what's beating us.

For all we know he could be capable of turning JJ or QQ into a bluff OTR though that would be extremely ambitious given how strong our range looks.

Because we're beat. Both players are deep.

Lol not folding

he doesnt rep much for value, but it doesnt make much sense as a bluff either, prob just had A2s or 87s or w/e

think folding is prob best but in game id say **** it and call

I don't think him bluffing raising otr with a 3x raise can happen too often. It's a long shot but he could have 88 in his range? I think with overpairs he would be raising flop, since he appears TAGish. river bet sizing to go for thin value since its fine but I'd b/f as mentioned above

If he's tagish he prob won't raise over earlier

Really hard to see what he has for value here bar quads and slowplayed aces full but doubt anyone is going to take this line as a bluff, so probably folding.

I hate it to ask but what had he ?

Yeah, if he is bluffing it is with something like JJ which is unlikely.

So you guys think, he call 3-bet OOP with 88/22/87s? I call here.

deep, yea

why bet the trn?

To barrel the river and fold out floats.

flat pre

I would rather check the turn with a lot of my range there. Folding out floats is not what we want. If he has floats we want him to fire and check call. If he often has a better range on this turn then we want to check fold.
As played I think I'm calling unless you 3bet 87s and 98s a lot in this spot.
I also like the advice of calling pre.

What are we beat by???
He had A8dd, card removal effect never works.
Why do you guys like calling pre? If we call pre here are we only 3 betting AA/KK for value? Check call the turn? Do we really want to call with AK high on this board?

He's IP

Sorry, didn't quote the guy that said something like Do you think he calls 3b w/ 88, 22, 87 OOP

It's an UTG open. Without info we should indeed only 3bet KK+ for value. I mean if he opens A8dd he opens a little more than 15%. The fact that he called a 3bet with it means we can 3bet AKs though
