On the flop I'm very confident of my hand obviously, but on the turn I three bet to see where I'm at and he caps it! This seems like a very strong play and the only hands that beat me right now are KK 46, and 69. I can rule of KK pretty safely, 46 is possible I guess but is it really possible that this guy limped utg with 69?! I mean, some people do like to play that specific hand and it seems like thats the only real hand that could be raising me on the raising my three-bet on the turn, because of this on the river when he bets I feel like I have to flat call due to his immense strength on the turn, unless hes just throwing money away... Can you really raise on the river?? </font>
