TPTK.. probably pretty obvious, but I'm here to learn.. :)

I get TPTK and backdoor flush on flop, and MP3 is extremely lose and limps with just about anything.

Should I have played it differently? My reasoning on the flop, was to punish flush and straight-draws, and when the blank came on turn I bet out, since I reasoned I would call a bet anyhow. I figured I was behind at this point, so I decided to cut my losses..

Any thoughts? A bit loose to 3-bet on the flop? Should I've just checked on the turn..?

I play it exactly the same. He probably checked on the river because the Td could have given you the straight or the flush. He made a mistake not capping the flop, so just be thankful he let you off easy!

BTW, don't post results as it tends to skew the advice you get.

Nah I like it very much. I play it exactly the same against an unknown. If I knew the player was very passive, I could see folding to the turn CR but that won't happen often. There's also no way in hell I bet this river after the CR on the turn. NH.

I play it the same. Thank you for 3-betting your TPTK. And betting the turn. After getting raised again, checking behind on the river is perfect.

I think it's altogether lovely. Haven't read your results, but I assume you lost to some random two pair holding (or a straight?) of MP3's. But he will have something like J6o most of the time here.

Edit: the J6o comment was before the turn raise...not betting that turn would hurt. Betting the river would be chip spewing.

Well done. As I thought about your hand I was thinking about how I usually bet the river. And how it bites me in the ass when they check-raise me. Something for me to work on.

I play it the same as well. Haven't looked the results yet, but if MP3 won he made a big mistake by not betting the river. Checking behind him on the river is correct imo. Getting check raised would suck.
