Default Huge pot

as usual the hand converter effs up this hand so I'm fixing it manual and it may look non pretty.

Party Poker 10/20 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed)

Preflop: Hero dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
UTG raises, Hero 3-bets, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, BB folds, UTG calls.

Flop: (8 bb) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG bets, Hero raises, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, UTG calls.

Turn: (13 bb) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets, CO calls, Button raises, SB calls, UTG folds, Hero 3-bets, CO calls $38 (All-In), Button calls, SB calls.

River: (24.90 bb) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(4 players, 1 all-in)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks

I would call turn - not 3-bet - many players ahead of you and i think Button collected on flop something to slowplay with. Like set or 2 pairs.

I take it you checked because you don't have it in you to fold to a river raise from KQ or QJ? I actually like the check and assume someone is going to call me out for liking it.

I think you check behind here because you have about a 2% chance of being best at this point.

call the turn bet instead of 3-betting. also, what happened to the button on the river? if he bets, make the crying call.

cheers!

Oh yea, I think that turn 3-bet is something you save for when it's HU since in multiway pots a turn raise like button's generally means greater than one pair.

Vehn I don't see many two pair hands he can have other than KJ, I'm tempted to 3 bet the turn because of how the preflop scenerio went but I think I wimp out to check call land.

I'd definitely call the flop.

1. I can evaluate the action behind me better, and may get to jam it up even more.

2. I may get a chance to confront the entire field with two bets on the turn in a pot that is gigantor.

You're probably right here. Gutshots are going nowhere in this game for 2 bets on the flop. On the turn I figured there was a good chance I was behind but I couldn't help myself.. probably not a good move.

Anyways on the river the button bet and the SB checkraised and I turbofolded. SB had T9o and button K7s. Oh well.

I see 10/20 and 5/10 players are no different.
