Just offering this hand up. It is just because I'm curious where you guys want to tear my play apart. I promise I won't bite when you do.

Edit: Even Errant, promise.

don't see a point in the flop 3-bet OOP

i'm fine with it...

i like the flop 3-bet as a semi-bluff as long as you feel you have fold equity. the turn is obviously great for you, and protects if the button was getting tricky with his flop smooth call.

the river is a nice scare card to bet, assuming you're folding to a raise.

it's a very aggressive line, but shorthanded this play is aiiight in my book.

semi-bluff against an opponent that could have a 7 or a 9 (against which you have outs), but could be pushed off it unimproved.

Yeah I didn't highlight it or anything but it needs to be mentioned (as Errant did) that this was a 6 handed hand. The three bet on the flop is heavily influenced by short handed mentality. On another note, if that river gets raised I don't even think for a nanosecond about calling.

This might get better responses in HUSH, but I think I like it.
