I'd raise the flop about half the time and I'm definitely 3-betting the river every time.

Is anyone else putting SB on a big club? His turn play sure looks like it, since he should be good enough to know button isn't cold-3betting lightly.

If we consider the A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] gone, since it was in SB's hand, then a 3bet is easy. The question is just how likely we think that scenario is.

EDIT: Seriously, forget about the river for a second and go back to the turn. SB has a set, two pair, or a pair and either A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] or J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], right?

He is very very loose, and too passive for the three handed game

I think all you people wanting to 3-bet after he raises you after all the turn action are out to lunch. I call.

he's passive, but probably not with a flush. there's little doubt that he has a flush, it's just that i can't see him limping with the suited ace, even bad players just want to raise it! 3 bet river

So a loose passive in a 20/40 game is really raising this river w/o the nuts?

I'm willing to be wrong if that's the case here, I obviously don't know the limit, but in general when passive players act like they've got the nuts at me, I like beliving them even if their preflop play doesn't always make sense.

i think c/ring river is a better line. Anyone else? (I 3bet the river as you played it, and if my river c/r is 3bet I probably just call) The problem is if you bet-3bet is you face SB with 2 cold, whereas you might gain a bet from him or even 2 if button just calls and sb overcalls (altho I doubt a good player does this). Also, its easier this way to make sure more than 3bets dont go in on the river, because if the river gets capped you are probably behind.

Dids, he's raising a lower flush way more than enough to 3-bet here. Trust the like 5 players who play this limit who have said so.
