Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Im new at the table, so no reads

Preflop: Hero is SB with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls, Button calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, CO calls, <font color="#CC3333">Button 3-bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, BB calls, UTG calls, CO calls, Button calls.

Flop: (20 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises</font>, Button folds, Hero calls, BB calls.

<font color="green"> Is it a big misstake to not 3-bet here?
If I 3-bet and he caps, you go into calldown mode right?</font>

Hero checks, BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">CO bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls.

if you're calling the flop here, you have to raise the turn.

when you've called the turn, you gotta raise the river.

so yes, a bit (very) passive with AA.

I would 3-bet the flop. The CO cold-called after others so maybe he got pocket pair or something suited -&gt; he likes this flop only when having pp. He loves it with 99..... If he caps, I just call down.

3bet the flop yeah, You knew you should. Why didnt you [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]? Tilt? Scared :P?

if he caps and bets turn or raised turn when you bet... I honestly think you can fold it.

with no read, calling down my get you a better table image(i.e. you can't be bluffed but wheter people watch it... debateable).

And you will get to see hands... And pots big.

3bet flop and bet turn if no more agg is shown by villan.

most villains would flat call with the trips. You should 3-bet this flop as a standard line.

[/ QUOTE ]

? calling down with an overpair tells everyone you are weak and will not play back at them with medium-strong hands, so they will know if you do play back to watch out.

if someone calls me down with AA there it tells me they are playing scared, so I'm more likely to bluff

if you call down with a medium pp or something I can see your argument -- AA isn't a bluff catcher in this hand.


edit: 3bet the flop
