40-80 hand, I suck

[Dave Mac]

Borg. 40-80, ok kinda laggy but not great game,
I have AhAc in the SB, folded to a bad slightly laggy but generally just too loose player who opne raises in LMP, folded to me and I call, BB, calls.

Flop is Qd7d2h

I check, BB checks, LMP bets, I raise, BB folds, LMP 3 bets, I cap, he folds.

Well crap I guess I suck, was this a bad line? I did not want to try to check raise the turn b/c he would have checked behind w/most draws and mediem weak hands. So, I figured it was best to cap the flop and keep the lead.
comments, or is this all stanard and boaring?

Try re-raising pre-flop. Given the way you played it your line is fine. I might bet into and go for 3 bets but that's me.

sorry not enough info, i felt i was getting too muc respect, esp. pf and if i 3 bet pf i have a lot more trouble getting action when i am ahead. On the flop i Cr-ed instead of betting b/c there was some semblance of a draw on the flop and i wanted to put pressure on the BB.

The solution to this problem is to 3 bet weaker hands, not slowplay big hands.

i probably would have made it 3 bets to see where the raiser was at in the hand. if he would have capped it, you could have put him on a big pair, but if he would have just called you could put him on aq or kq and played the hand more aggressively.

I tend to agree, and I almost never ever slow play Aces preflop, but why is this spot so bad to slow play pf?
