Stupid PF Question #570

Yes. You have position, you're likely to isolate and buy the button, and the hand should be pretty easy to play after your 3-bet.

Ok, I often have problems with this type of hand, so I guess I'm looking for a little more info. Say I 3-bet here and successfully buy the button.

How do you play a flop with one or more overcards and villian bets?

No overcards and villian bets?

One or more overcards and villian check raises?

Finally, no overcards villian check raises?

Depends on what overcard it is and how many there are. Folding or raising, folding more.

3-bet.

I'm going to imagine that villain calls the three-bet, and that I have no idea about what the board contains other than what you've just told me.

I'm also going to give you default plays.

Therefore I'll often be wrong, but I think this is a reasonable starting point (but it still won't be much help).

Punch yourself in the nuts if it's two overcards, and fold. Step one of this play is vital.

If it's one overcard, play it the same as no overcards.

Raise, bet the turn, take a free showdown.

Call, fold the turn unimproved.

Don't do any of these plays all the time. Taylor them to the board, the opponent, your opponents feelings, and your image.

For example, if this guy's called the river with ace-high once or twice in the past (luckily party lets you see this), bet the river sometimes too.

If the board is all undercards on the river and your opponent hasn't done anything but call since the flop I'm value-betting.
