No good read on villain as I haven't been sitting long. I got my stack by doubling through the same player earlier when I openraised 22 from the CO, he called in the BB w/AQs, then check/called a 642r flop, checkminraised a Q turn, and bet/called my all-in on a 5 river. That was within this same orbit.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $4 BB (6 max, 5 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

BB ($220.60)
Hero ($843.50)
MP ($932.95)
Button ($433.60)
SB ($416.20)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, A/images/graemlins/spade.gif. SB posts a blind of $2.
Hero raises to $16, 1 fold, Button raises to $28, 2 folds, Hero raises to $85, Button calls $57.

Flop: ($176) 6/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 5/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 5/images/graemlins/spade.gif (2 players)
Hero bets $150, Button raises $348.60 (All-In), Hero calls $198.60.

Looks standard; I like this 3-bet OOP because you can get it all-in on a flop like this. Once it comes out, you need to bet this flop and you can't fold to his raise. (and are probably ahead). nh.

I hope it worked out.. hope he didn't flop quads =)

Standard, you're beating everything. If he shows you a hand with a 5 in it, or 66, take good notes.

If he assumes he can stack OP on the flop with a set (which is a valid assumption, given the size of the pot before the flop comes out), then he is just barely making a mistake to call OP's 3-bet preflop.

Why he would min-raise on the button with 55 or 66 is anyone's guess, but he might have seen OP raise with 22 and want to "make a play".

Either way, this is a must-call, but I wouldn't be all that surprised to see a boat or quads.

This is incredibly standard, no?

Villian isnt holding KK, im almost positive of that.

I'd say that's a good enough read to feel VERY good about this hand. Also, I definately like the 3-bet pre-flop against this type of player.

I thought it seemed pretty boring and standard; just checking. Villain had TT and I just don't understand how someone can go broke with TT on this flop given the preflop action. Whatever.

That's a perfect flop for you. What's the question? Nicely played.
