jd - Do you suggest bet/fold or bet/call on the turn? Why?

[/ QUOTE ]

I woudl bet/call here. There is no reason to think villain has a Jack (he would have called the 3-bet on the flop and raised a turn bet by hero). More likely a flush draw trying to get a cheap turn in position/medium PP (10's?) charging overcards. I would put villain on AK [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] if hero did'nt have the K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] in his hands. AQ [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] if villain didn't fold to the river bet. As it stands, it seems like villain 3 bet pre-flop with AT [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (not quite the TAG he is made out to be...) or maybe pocket 8's/9's/10's.

If villain calls the 3 bet on flop and then raises me on turn I may consider folding this, but would prolly still see showdown (c/c) - and I expect to see AQ [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] or AJ - so I'm winning half of these.

well i think QQ, KK, AA also make up a good bit of his range seeing how he played it.

Yes. Those hands are definitly possible. But YOU have KK, so that makes KK are pretty slim holding. And he has other hands here more often than QQ/AA. With no ace on board and 2 to the flush, he is going to have to show me AA at some point - I am not giving a flop capper (in position) a free draw at a flush.

I really think putting in 3BB between the turn and river is too much unless you have a retardedly crazy read on villain. You capped preflop, 3-bet the flop, and you think he's raising ATc or AQc when you lead the turn?

I think he is raising AQc or AJ on the turn. Not ATc (that slows down FOR SURE).

I'm not even sure this guy would 3 bet me pf with ATs.

point is on the turn there are more combos considering his range that i am behind than those that i am ahead of.

This is one where you should have definitely ended the action on the turn card. The responses are going to be skewed because it went c/c, b/f.

Anyway, here's my analysis:

His hand range is narrow after the flop action: AA, KK, QQ, AQ[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] and maybe 1010. There are the following hand combinations:

AA-6
KK-1
QQ-3
AQ:clubs:-1
1010-6 discount this because of flop aggression to about 3, IMO.

We are ahead of 4 (7 at most), behind 9 and chop 1. I'd bet the turn and if he raises, I can eliminate 10-10 for sure. That leaves 1 hand we beat (AQ:clubs, 9 we don't and 1 chop.

So, from an EV perspective:

1/11 * 11.75 = 1.07
1/11 * 5.375 = .49
9/11 * -2 = -1.63

However, when we are ahead of AQ [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], he has still has 13 outs (3 aces, 2 queens, 8 clubs). Therefore:

(1.07)x(31/44) = 0.75 bb, our EV if we are ahead and stay ahead.

True, sometimes we catch a K when we are behind and win the pot, but it won't happen often enough to turn this isn't a profitable calldown. I'd bet the turn and fold to a raise.

I'm new at working the math, so if I'm wrong somewhere, please correct me.
