Default Re: Live Hand: Pop it now or later?

Ok here is what happened. First I'll go through my thought process. Tell me whether you agree or disagree and why (thats more important than the results):

1) I recognized that there aren't that many safe cards on the turn that I could pop in a raise.

2) Having said that I also thought I was ahead on the flop, although my edge may not be that high with the monotone board and the action before me.

3) A 3 bet could potentially buy me a free card on the turn even if a spade falls - i.e. I anticipate one of the donks to suffer from fancy play syndrome and go for a check raise on a spade turn.


Based on the 3 reasons, I 3 bet, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls.

UTG+1 checks, I bet, UTG+1 folds.
