Raise for a free showdown? ($10/20 5 handed, A3s blind steal)
I normally think plays like this are dumb, but I can't think of a better line for a host of reasons. I plan to see if I can make more plays like this in the future.
FWIW, I was folding to a turn 3-bet. On the river I fold if the flush completes and he donks. Probably call otherwise unless it's like a Q or something. If he checks, I was checking behind without further improvement.

its a good card to bluff at for sure. really depends on who youre playing against. raising for a free showdown is much better than calling down here against alot of opponents specifically passive ones that can fold hands.

Assume unknown Party 10/20er, that's all I had to work with.

I think I like, folding J7 and the like is very hot.

All I can say is that against an unknown I can't see calling any donked river cards.

The guy check raised you and then led the turn. What makes you think you have enough chance of being ahead that raising the turn for a free showdown is useful? I really don't see many folks c/r'ing the flop and leading the turn when on a draw.

I'll post my rationale once I stop 8-tabling in about 40 min. I can't do both.

btw metetron, 3betting this flop and betting turn/checking and calling a river bet = cheaper showdown.
