This was my second hand at the table, so no read on villain yet. I hate the board to begin with, and even more after he raises my turn bet. Without a read, I feel like I have to slow down here and call the turn, then check/call the river. What do you think?

![]() [/ QUOTE ] Why does the turn raise worry you any more than the flop cap? [/ QUOTE ] Interesting. I think because I feel like people tend to slow down on the turn without a made hand. HU, I felt like he could have played AK, AQ, or KQs that way on the flop. But I thought when the turn missed him, he would slow down with those hands. So when he raised the turn, I felt like I had to put him on AA, QQ, JJ, or maybe ATs or JTs (hard to know without the read). A remote chance of the other KK or TT too. Since I only beat QQ, I felt like it was time to back off. Is that reasonable thinking here, or do you think he might have pushed HU with his overcards or KQ OESD? |

[ QUOTE ] What range of hands do we put Villain on? [/ QUOTE ] Group 1 hands. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah. I was hoping the OP or first responder would chime in. Let's call it (TT)JJ-AA, AK. (1x TT) 2x JJ 6x QQ 1x KK 6x AA 8x AK We're behind to 8 or 9, ahead of 14, spliting with 1. What does his flop raise tell us? Would he do this with AK? It changes the picture in a hurry if the answer is no. If yes, defense against a free card play has to be part of our plan. So... what do we think everyone? |

[/ QUOTE ] Most people won't 3-bet preflop with hands like AT, JT, and KQ suited or not. Standard 3-betting hands are AA-TT, AKs/o and maybe AQs. He might have thrown in a bet or raise on the flop with AK, but he would not continue betting the turn. You're right to suspect AA-TT by the turn, and I think you shoudl definately slow down. You're way behind or drawing dead to AA, JJ, and TT and you're only beating QQ of those hands. I'd just slow down and check-call to a showdown. If he's a nut and would 3-bet some questionable hands preflop, you might be behind to something like AT. So even if he 3-bets non-premiums preflop, it's wise to slow down anyways. |

i'm not a fan of the turn bet. we're hoping for QQ or a gonzo AK.. both which may bet the turn anyway.

[/ QUOTE ] He might raise the flop with AK if he's aggressive, but I can't imagine him capping and then betting out on the turn. Also, I don't see why you need to put TT in parentheses - most people would 3-bet preflop with it. That said, I think you're behind 9 (TT, JJ, AA) and ahead 6, splitting 1. Definately time to slow down in my opinion. Edit: oops he capped the flop and then raised the turn. I'd take the cap on the flop as a hint to slow down, and I'd check the turn. |
