Re: Three-bet the turn with one pair?
[ QUOTE ]
I just have one question: if waited till river do some posters here think it would be optimal to fold to a river 3-bet?
[/ QUOTE ]
There are two main arguments that I am aware of for waiting until the river. First is the one you describe which is the fact that a river 3-bet is more likely to be legitimate and therefore we can fold to a 3-bet. I still have a very tough time with this one though especially with an overpair because it is not uncommon in my experience for a very aggressive opponent to 3-bet the river with just top pair for instance, especially on a low board which he thinks has missed me.
The other is that in the even the opponent is bluffing or pulling this move with a small pair, 3-betting the turn may convince him to fold when he would have followed through with a river bluff.
