Defending with A5 and get flop cr gets 3-bet

[bobdibble]

Villain is 17/8/2.9

I'm thinking that a check/call on the river would have been better.

Party Poker 30/60 Hold'em (8 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with 5/images/graemlins/spade.gif, A/images/graemlins/spade.gif. Hero posts a blind of $30.
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero (poster) calls.

Flop: (4.50 SB) K/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 7/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 5/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO 3-bets</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (5.25 BB) 7/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>

River: (5.25 BB) 2/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>

WTF are you doing posting UTG?

[bobdibble]

I didn't notice this. It was a converter screwup. I was in the BB. Notice the 2 folds before my call PF. Also notice that I didn't check pf.... so no, I didn't post UTG. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Unfortunately, it is too late to edit the original post.

I'd go with a river check call over a lead.

I like the river bet, CO will often call with Ace high, but they won't bet, because they figure you either have them beat or were betting a draw and can't call a bet.
