Three bet turn?

Maulik · #1 12-21-2005, 07:50 PM

I could be against a better straight, not likely, we are heads up. I raised the last hand to $3 pf. I didn't make a c-bet; that would lead to a likely raise and fold by me...

Turn is nice, I want to build the pot w/ my straight + flush draw? So is the 3-bet necessary?

looks fine to me, nh.

If he's on a flush draw too, build up that pot so you can stack him when it hits. If he's not, build up that pot so you can stack him with your straight.

if you think your opponent is really bad (I assume you do since you're playing him hu) I think this is the best way to play it

played pretty much perfectly IMO. are you asking whether you should have just called his raise on the turn rather than rasing?

Push the turn.
