Elliot,

I think a three-bet is probably spewing on the turn out of position. We open ourselves up to a cap. Though we might be able to fold, against players who like to take shots, I tend to like a passive approach that lets them bet inferior hands. I don't think that this guy is folding a better hand often, or even a hand that has a really significant amount of outs. Three-betting and betting the river against a T would be really unfortunate.


My general theory against laggy types is that we want to avoid paying them off big on their decent hands and at the same time avoid letting them get away easy on poor hands. The best way to do this is to play pretty defensive on the big bet streets and make sure we make them get to showdown for 2-3 bb. So I like a calldown.
