A 3/6 blindsteal attempt
Villain is real tight after 30 hands. VPIP = 10%, has only shown down KQo, and did not raise that hand. Could be card dead, could be tight.
With that turn card, if he had a piece on the flop, I'm dead. If he didn't have a piece, but had say, a non-set making mid pocket pair, I'm also dead only to an ace. Should I have played differently on the turn and river?

Re: A 3/6 blindsteal attempt
I think this is fine. That's a pretty terrible board for your ace-high.
Sometimes I think I push too hard with my blind steals. And the posted hand seems like a situation where it's best not to. |

Re: A 3/6 blindsteal attempt
Cool, thanks.
Sub-question: If the turn is a diamond, do we continue the semi-bluff? (My instinct is yes, but I'm interested in other opinions...) Regards, -Brian |

I would bet any non-straight completing diamond.
Getting checkraised when you could get there for free bites. |
