Top pair good kicker on suited flop
Party Poker 20/40 Hold'em (9 handed) converter
Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG+1 calls, MP1 calls, <font color="#666666">6 folds</font>. Flop: (7.50 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, Hero ??? What's the plan? UTG+1 is weak tight, 20/7/0.65 over 110 hands MP1 is a bit loose and very aggressive, 25/11/5.5 over 90 hands |

Re: Top pair good kicker on suited flop
I 3 bet here and keep firing. If MP1 caps I probably still lead a non club turn. If UTG+1 ever raises I think it's a safe fold.

Re: Top pair good kicker on suited flop
My standard play is calling and donking a safe turn. Our equity isnt great (we could even be dead) so I prefer to refrain from jamming the pot on the flop.

Re: Top pair good kicker on suited flop
although you don't have many hands on MP1 but it's quite clear that he's playing very aggressive during the session this hand took place in.
IMO, I would not 3bet in this spot because you are going to get capped here way too often on quite a vulnerable hand. ALSO, if you were to just call here and bet the turn against an opponnent this aggressive they are going to pop you again for a free showdown or incase they hit. so my default line here is CALL the flop, and checkraise the turn on a blank and if I get 3betted its an easy fold and if you don't get 3betted you are charging them the maximum for their draw. |

Re: Top pair good kicker on suited flop
I like an alternate line here in smooth calling the raise and checkraising any non-club turn and check-folding any club turn.
3-betting only jacks the pot up, and with UTG+1 being weak tight, a turn CR is your best bet to get him to fold a club you would otherwise not want to see the river. MP1 being a bit loose and very agg could be raising any ace here and you will have a better idea of where you stand on the turn. If he 3-bets I think you are dead to a set or made flush and have an easy fold. If he calls, I probably check/call the river hoping to induce a bet from a missed flush draw or a weaker ace. This is a spot I don't want to pay off a river raise or open myself up to a river bluff raise from a very aggressive player...not to mention if he has some two pair A8/A5 that he may not bet on the river after getting CRed on the turn. If you spike a non-club Q, bet and call a raise. My .02 |
