Final Pot: 8.75 BB

Lately I've been trying to improve my turn play, mainly knowing when to re-raise rather than just betting/calling/folding. Is this 3-bet good or should I stop-and-go? Or maybe even check/call river?

Any input would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Is this post written in an inappropriate way or is is just boring?

I dislike the 3-bet. It can get you in a lot of trouble. Can you really fold to a cap?

I typically call the turn raise and check/call the river. Villain will bet the river with his 8 or on a pure bluff well over 50% of the time.

Your play looks straight-forward. You have about eleventy million outs in the event your hand is not good on the turn.

If he caps the turn and you don't improve, I probably check-call the river. Others may make a case for leading the river regardless.

hhhhmmmmm......
i bet the turn, call the raise, check/call the river

with reads, i may 3 bet this turn, but without reads, i call down

if hes bluffing, he'll fold to a reraise, if hes not, you're getting it capped back to you
An important factor here is the flush draw, I want to see that river card cheap, if i just call the turn there is a good chance I can check/raise the river if I catch a /images/graemlins/heart.gif or K
assuming that the check raise works in this situation,
I'd be getting 2BB on the turn, and 2BB on the river, so 4BB total when I win
if i call the turn raise, and check/call the river unimproved, its 3 bets if i'm behind
if I reraise the turn, I could be looking at a cap plus a river bet

I think the turn 3-bet is a little wreckless, I'd call and see what the river brings you. I think you can get away with check-raising a heart.
