Villain is a fairly good player but overaggressive in steal situations. His stats are 30/25/1.3 with a 45 atsb.

Re: 33 in blind war
 

whats he calling you on the river with? I doubt he folds a better hand since you checked the turn


if he settles down post flop, I 3 bet this PF since hes so aggresive with his raises, if hes balls crazy post flop HU too, then I just call.

Re: 33 in blind war
 

I don't think the river bet has any merit here at all.

Re: 33 in blind war
 

ok, this looks bad to me. this is a very familiar heads-up dynamic. my general impression of it is thus:

- late position is last flop aggressor
- turn checks through
- on a river blank expect to see a bet out about 80% of the time. if he checks it is almost always a marginal hand wanting to see showdown cheap. like really almost always.

is my thinking off?

Re: 33 in blind war
 

I agree that it is fine until the river. I can't think of a single worse hand that is calling you here, or a single better hand that is folding. I would be thrilled to get to do the old river check and pray.

Re: 33 in blind war
 

Yea, this was what I thought as soon as I bet the river. Anyways, villain folded.

Re: 33 in blind war
 

As others have said, betting the river has no value.

If he bets the turn, are you calling and folding the river UI?

If he bets the river, you are calling, right?

Does anyone 3-bet this preflop against someone who's ASB is this high?

Well sometimes I 3-bet. Other times I call and raise any flop. It is just that this time I opted for the later.
