I'd either 3 bet the flop or donk the turn to prevent the "free" card.

You are ahead here much of the time. I would three bet the flop and lead the turn. There are alot of draws out against you, and alot of turn cards you won't want to see.

When I read the original post, I liked it, but thought that some people might advocate 3-betting the flop or leading the turn. Sure enough, that is what some people have advocated, and I began to waver and think that maybe that was right, but I am glad you reafirmed what I thought in the beggining.

The reason I don't like 3-betting preflop, or leading the turn is because if we get capped on the flop, or raised on the turn, we are in a very sticky situation. Furthermore, this is an agressive opponent, who might fold if we 3-bet or lead the turn, but will continue to bet away a worse hand if we check it to him.

Aggressive players don't take free cards HU.

Whether you are beat or not isnīt really the main factor when deciding between check-call or bet on the river out of position.

You think he will bet more that you are ahead of if you check than he will call if you bet, assuming that he wont bluffraise if you bet ?
