Default Usual AA post

How was my line here? PT pegs UTG and BB as LAG/P, and SB as LP/P. I felt comfortable three betting that flop, but when the bets kept coming to me I wasn't sure what to do.

Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">BB 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG caps</font>, Hero calls, SB calls, BB calls.

Flop: (16 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, SB calls, <font color="#CC3333">BB caps</font>, UTG calls, Hero calls, SB calls.

Turn: (16 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG bets</font>, Hero calls, SB calls, BB folds.

River: (19 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: 19 BB

I raise the turn and bet the river.
The only hand that one of the preflop raiser could have that we fear is TT.
We beat JJ-KK and of course all overs. We are good here very often. Protect your hand on the turn man.
And if they have the odds to call, it's at least for value.
In a huge pot raise with this this good chances of winning.
Raise to get the maximum chances of winning.

I don't mind the turn call. Based on preflop action I think you're up against KK, QQ, etc. The way you played it though, you have to bet the river. I can't imagine anyone with TT risking this getting checked through. Also, when the board paired, the junk 2 pair that SB might have could be counterfit.

It looks to me that BB and UTG like their hands as much preflop as they do postflop.

Even passive players can find the raise button with big pairs. Their most likely holdings are overpairs, and you have them all beaten. Raise that turn. If it comes back 3-bet I'd consider capping it, if I'm confident in what I've put them on. The way it played out makes it look like SB is on a flush draw.

I bet the river too. UTG will probably groan but will call your bet with JJ - QQ.

I like your train of thought there; what I was worried about was that someone had overplayed a small pair and hit a set. When the whole field stayed with me when I three bet the flop I was really taken aback. In hindsight I definitely should have bet the river, and probably should have raised the turn to avoid giving anyone overplaying a draw cheap cards.

Results in white below:
<font color="white"> UTG shows QsJs, a pair of threes
SB shows Tc9s, two pair of tens and threes
Hero shows AsAd, two pair aces and threes
Hero takes down the pot</font>

i'd raise the turn but BBs play is very weird. i would have thought TT, but he checks? i guess suited overcards...but bet the river. a limp/cap preflop: KK or AK enough times, i think your hand is good.

Raise the turn. Bet the river. The 3 of clubs is a GREAT card for you.

I like BB's cap the flop then check/fold to one bet on the turn. Stellar.

That was a cap for a "free card". You really don't know the advanced concepts! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
