Can't argue with the turn 3-bet since CO will be raising with a lot of cheese. If CO flopped a set or some wacky hand so be it. No way to fold since pots too bloated.

I think the turn 3 bet is a little excessive. I think villain could have a number of hands that beat u. If hes a loose stealer he could have a K with his weak kicker paired or A5 for the wheel.

Is he capable of making a Cr semibluff here?

i dont see the value in making it 3 on the turn. If hes pure bluffing with this raise then hell just fold immediately after u pop it. By calling the raise and C/calling the river u may induce him to bluff on the river and thus gaining an extra bet on the river possibly. if ur beat u lose less money.

I think alot of villians take this line with a weaker king, that's my guess for the most likely holding for villian.

And the times we're behind two pair, we've got a ton of outs to improve. Only a set or a straight has us dirty, and I think that's much less frequent than a pair or two pair.

Your play is fine but when im in bb with such a powerful hand i usually call the prefl raiser and c-r any flop.
Although if i hit on fl ill probably just lead out hopin to be raised.

I agree with all the other posters. Also think you might take the line of C/R the turn sometimes, maybe to feign weakness. Of course in this case it doesn't matter you capped the turn which is the goal. AK hold up?
