My first hand at the table. I've played with CO and SB but have never seen Button in this hand before. CO is TAG pre but seems somewhat weak post. In general this game plays very aggressively, from what I've seen, but my opinion could be off.

CO opens, Button 3-bets. SB folds. I call with 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif8/images/graemlins/spade.gif in the BB. CO calls.

The flop is T/images/graemlins/heart.gif5/images/graemlins/heart.gif6/images/graemlins/spade.gif. I check. CO checks. Button bets. I checkraise. CO folds. Button 3-bets.

Anyone got a plan for the rest of the hand?

I think I waver between calling down a non-AK and folding the turn if I don't hit a straight draw or an 8.

How many of you cap preflop? What about with 99? TT? JJ?

I would cap with TT (duh, you would have flopped the set!!! /images/graemlins/smile.gif), but no lower, JJ is a no brainer

I cap 99+ in this spot, fold 77- in this spot and am 50/50 between raise and fold with 88.

I like to donk the turn here and fold to a raise if that's what I'm in for.

That is what I was thinking, as we save bets often when we are beat. What do we do when he calls our bet though? Check call the non ace/king river?

I like the idea of calling the turn only if we hit a straight draw, but then do we fold the river UI, or call it too?

I usually just call down regardless, but I dunno how right this is.

I really don't like the turn donk here. I raise a donk in this situation on principle as to me it conveys weakness. I have won many pots, whether I was FOS or not, with an autoraise of the turn donk.

I would call down here as I think there is a fairly strong chance that you are ahead of overcards here.
