Started as SB defense...
 

Party 10/20 4-Handed

CO(the only reason I'm even at this table) folds. Button (20/14/ATSB 33) raises. I 3bet from SB with A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] . BB caps. Button folds. I call.

The BB is 25/18 with a 1.9 AF. I assume his cap means something but it's only 4 handed and people get crazy with blind defense sometimes. Also, I'm just taking some selected shots at 10/20 and interesting new things are happening to me here.

Flop is 9 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. Check, call.

Turn is a 3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Check, call.

Any thoughts?

Edited to fix order of action on flop and turn.

Why bet into a preflop capper with this hand?

I messed up. Should be check, call on both streets.

That's fine

With 7BB in after his bet on the turn you'll want to ram a raise in there if you believe that he will fold a larger ace. You're going to get 3 bet fairly often, but it's still worth it when you're putting in 1 bet anyways and will pass twenty-some percent of the time (or more).
