Re: holy crap, I think I just played on the 3rd level
I must be very far from this type of thinking because I have no idea what you're doing in this hand. I see how his turn raise is suspicious after not betting the flop, but it could be something like 55 that he wanted action on. And when he calls your 3-bet I really think he has something, even a better A-high who called the turn just to try to maybe improve on the river. I cant see you winning this hand often. Its a small enough pot on the turn to let it go.

Re: holy crap, I think I just played on the 3rd level
If you are going to do this, I like a river bet more than I do a river call. I think you lose more by not betting in a 8BB pot and giving him the oportunity to fold an ace, or some pair+flushdraw.

This means either a weak-ish hand like a J or some kind of flush draw. By raising my turn lead, he's calling bullshit on my having a Q. Betting from a blind when the top card on the board pairs is a pretty common bluff against perceptive players. You're the only one who could have legitimately checked top pair on the flop, having failed a CR. Sometimes, you have to three-bet with little or no hand in these situations to keep people from picking you off every time you lead out like this. He's going to have a busted flush draw a good percentage of the time, and it's usually not going to contain a better A, since any good suited A he would have raised preflop. Therefore, I'm probably good a decent enough % of the time to look him up on the river. This is really just a brag post on my part, because I'm proud of my developing hand reading, but I welcome criticism from better players (read: most everybody ) |

Re: holy crap, I think I just played on the 3rd level
With "played on the 3rd level"... do you mean "I just 3-bet the turn with the worst hand and then called on the river"?
I think you are spewing, but it probably worked out for you in this hand since you posted it. |

If we're operating under the assumption that he called bullshit on the turn by raising me, then he's not folding the river for one bet with any kind of showdown value, right? |

I'm guessing KT or T9s, more likely the latter.
