Yes.

Flop is fine, but I don't offer the free card on the turn.

I bet and 3-bet a raise, call down a cap. Bet/call a blank river if he smooth calls.

Hm, stop-n-go is an interesting thought. My other thought was a river checkraise, especially considering that the villian paused for about 5 seconds before he bet the river.

Was MP3 on a flush draw?

[Gravy (Gravy Smoothie)]

MP3 flipped over 88 and MHIG.

Since when is a Jack considered a weak kicker?

PS Don't get too worried about someone raising the flop. People at micro levels raise the flop with nothing quite often, especially when the board pairs.

[meep_42]

Oh, yeah, if i'd called the turn, i'd definitely c/r the river. That 3 isn't going to help much of anything. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Maybe I'm too aggressive, but I re-raise the flop (and call a cap) and bet the turn and the river.

Way too passive. You need to get some more bets in there one way or the other.

It's very unlikely your opponent has a 2, and if he does there's a reasonable chance you have him outkicked.

I'd probably pull a stop-and-go here trapping the MP2 in the middle, 3-bet if I'm raised and then call down a cap.
