Button is weak and makes some loose flop calls.

3 folds, Button calls, Hero raises, BB calls, Button calls.

Flop: (6 SB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)
Hero bets, BB folds, Button calls.

Turn: (4 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero bets, Button raises, Hero calls.

River: (8 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)

Should I 3bet the turn since it's such a huge draw?

Bet the river. Don't 3-bet the turn.

Your avatar rules. Nh.

I'm betting the river and hoping I get to three-bet.

Bet the turn only if you think you have some fold equity. It's not for value.

Just as a heads up, you're kinda spammning the board. Posting 3 hands in rapid succession is fairly poor form, but everyone has to learn this sometime. Take some time to respond to some other threads, and include your reason for all actions in your responses. I've found that to be much more helpful for learning than posting a bunch of hands.

Just so you know, it's polite to space yr posts out more. Like post a hand, then wait a while for responces, then wait for it to fall down a bit, then post another hand. I know you are not trying to be rude or anything, it's just kinda common courtesy to other posters who also want feedback on hands. Yr new and all, so it's cool. Just so you know.

Given yr read on villian, he ain't folding to a turn bet. Check/call.

River, I generally don't like checking to weak and passive players with the stone cold nuts. Unless I have some spectacular read.

I don't really like check/calling the turn that much. If he likes to make loose flop calls that insinuates that he'll be folding turns pretty often, and he doesn't need to fold that often for this to be a +EV bet.

Dont check the river.
The spade is a scare card and villain might check it.

I bet out that river. If Button is scared by that third spade, he may check behind. Then I would cry.

So I bet. I would not 3-bet the turn. Yes, you have huge equity, but there's an excellent chance that your K outs are dirty.

I like how you played this.
