Re: First Things First, flop decision

Can someone please explain to me what the advantage is of 3-betting rather than calling down when you're OOP?

i'll try. when we call the flop raise, there are over 10 SB's in the pot. assuming we have the best hand, we cannot afford to give him a "free" look at the turn by just calling, which could very well lead to a turn check and thus a free river. If villain has 6 outs to beat us, this would really suck. Now, if villain is a tricky [censored] and will raise the turn with a hand like AK, then we may have rethink our flop play.
