Given this assesment, you should fold the flop.

Re: live flush board w/ trips
glch. The minraise + flatcall on the flop convince me that a set is usually no good here. But you're 2:1 to fill up by the river, and 4:1 to sill up on the turn. Since you're going to have to call...

Re: fire the third barrel?
I think you see QJ or TT often enough to commit you to this pot. I can see check-call, but not check-fold.

Re: fire the third barrel?
Your post title implies that you think you're bluffing. Do you think this?
I like every street. I'd probably bet slightly less on the turn, but your PSB is fine, too.

Sure, maybe. But can you quantify that at all?
For example, let's atart with the assumption the the opponent flopped a set of QQ. He open-checked both the flop and the turn. Obviously he...

Re: arg (ssnl 2p2 tourney name)
No, I don't think that option was open to us. (I didn't instantiate the tourney)
The structure is that of a normal Stars MTT: 1500 chips, 15 minute blinds starting at 10/20. They go:
10/20...

Re: tough 55 hand
Well, I think I do disagree. I think AA and AK might fold to a 3bet, not not normally. Putting anumber on it, I'd say AA and AK fold 25% of the time.
Now, who's right? That's the question...

Re: tough 55 hand
I was originally going to say 3-bet the turn, but then I reconsidered after reading Fallen Hero's post. Now I put the opponent's range at: AA, KK, QQ or AK. Each equally possible.

Re: Check/push a bad idea?
Oh, I thought the focus of your question was the push, not the check.
No, I don't much care for the attempt to check-raise here. It's a fairly dry flop, and you are the preflop aggressor. If you...
