Final Pot: 16.16 BB
Question 1: Is my flop 3-bet bad? Thinking about it now, I am either behind (to two pair or a set) in which case I am throwing more money away, or I am ahead and limiting the amount of money I could make (calling and raising the river is a much safer way to make the same amount, since I don't give away a chance for a good laydown).
Question 2: I don't like the river. The better options seem to be check/call or bet/fold to a raise? Since my opponent is unknown, is it fair to rule out folding to a raise and therefore opting to check call?
