Turn cap with top set on straightboard.
No good read on the villain, but he seems pretty standard with 25/16/0.7 over 40 hands, not very aggressive and havent seen him out of line postflop.

And would you ever just call his 3-bet to raise the river? |

very easy. I would also raise the river and call a 3bet. Calling the turn 3bet to raise the river is pointless.

Any merits in raising preflop?

I would raise PF and raise/call the river.

Re: Turn cap with top set on straightboard.
I seldom raise 66 here, I might if I feel CO and SB are bad players. I always raise 88. Should I extend that range in this spot?

Re: Turn cap with top set on straightboard.
Both players seem to be reasonable people who probably recognize that their opponent is also a reasonable person.
I don't see Villain 3-betting the turn with less than two pair and quite possibly that isn't enough. Also I know I usually like to bet the flop with hands like 54 and J6. Is there something about Cutoff that would inspire a flop checkraise? Flopped straights outnumber all two-pair and set hands put together. You can sift through all the hands and ask questions like "is J5 a possible hand", "is 73 a preflop complete", and "would he try to isolate preflop with 55/44". But in the end you have to think you aren't the favorite anymore. I'd call the turn 3-bet expecting that there is no EV to be gained by capping. On the other hand there is a nice EV gain in raising the river after the board pairs. He won't like the board pairing against his straight, but you won't have shown enough strength to excuse a river checkcall instead of betting out. Also a turn cap can lose a bet on the river if his two-pair get counterfeited. If you only call the 3-bet he's apt to make a crying checkcall but hearing you cap the turn easily justifies a river checkfold. |

after counting some combinations I rescind my response. I would call the river.

The villian isn't c/r the flop with many hands that beats the hero for mine.
I cap and see how he reacts on the river. |

Re: Turn cap with top set on straightboard.
Against an opponent like this I'd just call and raise the river if the board pairs.
