MP1's play seems a bit off to me. Question is how to play the river.
BB is TAG, better than average 2+2 type. MP1 just sat down and have no stats on him. Cutoff is below average, seeing flop for a raise w/ any ace and any two face cards.
Poker Room 3/6 10 handed.
Hero in MP3 w/ 10 10 (disregard suits, board is 4 different suits by the turn).
2 folds, MP1 limps, fold, Hero raises, fold, CO calls, 2 folds, BB 3 bets, MP1 calls, hero calls, CO calls
6BB going to the flop, 4 handed.
Flop
K Q 10
BB leads, MP1 calls, Hero raises, CO calls, BB 3 bets, MP1 caps, Hero calls, CO calls.
Thoughts: With the way BB played in the past, AA, AK, KK and QQ are all possible, I will be better able to define his hand on the turn (he will likely lead, KK or QQ, and check AA and AK hoping to call 1 on the turn if he gets the chance). I have no read on MP1, but, judging by preflop action, I doubt overset, leaving KQ, AJ and some odd play w/ AK or KJ or something like that to account for flop cap. CO likely has a naked ace.
14BB going to the turn
Turn [ K Q 10 ] 3
BB checks, MP1 bets, Hero raises, CO folds, BB folds, MP1 calls.
Thoughts: Once BB checks, set Q's and set K's can be elimated. He's on AA or AK, which he's hoping to check and get to call one bet to try to improve on the river. MP1, i'm still not sure on. I could be behind, but, my raise is to drive out gutshot type hands, since I'm almost certainly drawing live vs MP1 or already have him beat. His turn call of the raise is makes me lean toward putting him on KQ (or maybe just a horrible overplay of AK). given that a blank falls on the river, the plan is for him to likely check river to hero, and bet, calling a c/r (the pot will be just too large to give up).
18BB going to river (heads up)
[ K Q 10 3 ] 5
MP1 bets, Hero???
Thoughts: I have to at least call, but is a raise in order? He didn't 3 bet the turn, so AJ (or J 9 for that matter) are highly unlikely. Preflop play does not indicate an overset, and a hand like KQ or AK (vastly overplayed) would be forced to call a river raise. If 3 bet, size of the pot dictates calling last bet. Thoughts on what exactly to do on the river.
