Final Pot: 17 BB

I don't like that I was 3 bet on the turn, but based upon how he played the hand, I figured 2 pair, not trips.

I figured that the 6 wasn't one of the two pair, so I was good on the river.

Make sense?

raise preflop.
i'd also bet the flop.

I'd raise preflop.

I'd bet the flop if the table was relatively passive and/or some of the players there would wait for the turn to c/r a big hand, but I don't know how often anyone has reads that good online. I suspect this works better at 2/4 than 3/6 (the point of the play being to get a freebee on the turn since we have lots of backdoor draws and our OC's).

I probably bet the river. His turn 3-bet is very strange, indicative of a big hand, but I'd expect most of those to raise immediately since there are a lot of redraws out there. I think it is a rare player who will do that on the turn, then look for a river-check-raise too. Given that his line is so weird though, I'd probably call the river raise if he did so, just on account of the weirdness. I think calling when an opponent down after a strange line is pretty standard.
