I can't figure out who's worse, me for firing three barrels with an unimproved AQ or AK, or the other guy for calling down with 33.

Against people like this, you should almost always fire two barrels and check down the river. In the games I play, at least, if someone calls with some sort of pair on the turn, they are never going to fold it for one more bet on the river, and worse hands than mine never pay me off.

I hear ya. Most of the time I'm firing that 3rd barrel, it's on a board where there was a flush or straight draw that doesn't come on the river. I think it's been a +EV play for me against most opponents that I peg as drawing, but once in a while they'll turn over their small pair, and I scratch my head wondering how they can call down in a small pot with a PF raiser betting with overcards to their hand on the board.

Of course in their head, they're probably just thinking "I'VE GOT A POCKET PAIR" over and over.

OK, where's Mason, I'm results oriented and I want to see them.
