flop aggression (long)

My flop aggression is real high (4.5) so I want to try to tone it down some. With that in mind, I looked through my database a bit to find an assortment of hands that are representative of my flop play when I am the aggressor. Any comments? I do use GT+, but lets assume no reads.

5. wait and raise the turn
6. i'm calling down the after the preflop cap and flop 3bet
7. I'm not sure about this one, but I think I would just call there.

the rest I like just fine.

6 and 7 are too much, AK[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] you're probably both drawing, but he's not folding a T and it's likely he's got a piece he's also not folding. The TT hand is just pointless. check/call every street except the river, bet/fold or bet/call that depending.

What jba said, except I probably cap #7 too if you're not likely to get donked on the turn. Definitely not wrong to call the flop 3-bet either though, I think.

You're OOP on #7

Now that I look at the TT hand again, I realize it might be a bad example. I probably had a read that he was a goofball because that is over the top even for me.

yep, in position I like 7's plan to free card cap

What's your turn plan if he just calls your flop raise?

In the spirit of this post, I just slowplayed a set, allowing a runner runner flush to beat me, so I'm off to a great start. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

If you are looking to tone down your aggression, you should tone it down with middle pair, not sets.
