Flop J/images/graemlins/club.gif, Q/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 3/images/graemlins/spade.gif (pot ~$8)

SB checks, BB checks, Hero bets $7, BTN calls $7, 2 folds

Turn 8/images/graemlins/diamond.gif (pot ~$21)

Hero checks, BTN goes AI for $36.25, Hero...

i guess im worried about 33, 9T and JQ most.. whats your plan?

all comments appreciated, thanks!

WO a read I would fold this, seeing some monsters under the bed; however, I'm a nit.

[ADK]

im leading turn for about $15, and without a read im calling his AI most of the time

[Abelardo]

Not a good card on the turn, I'd bet out anyways, and I would hate it when opponent goes AI because I would have to call.

I bet out on the turn, somewhere around $15.

Since he called preflop I'm more worried about this bet... The probable hands that you can beat; AK, AQ, AJ are hands he might very well have reraised preflop. The hands you named would have you crushed.

As played, I call.

Why does everyone feel the need to call this turn when all hero has is one pair? While the turn check may well have induced a bluff, this is an expensive pot in which to find out. AQ might do this, but I disagree with mdvgaag that most players would 3-bet that preflop. Next time lead the flop for about 2/3 pot, this time fold it.

As for everyone saying call try and remember that one pair, even an overpair, is not a hand that you want to stack off with on a board like this without a read that villain would bluff.

i agree that this hand gets way to expensive on turn. and that turn card is not that great for you either. as played just look for a better spot.

[Gullanian]

I'd fold and put him on a straight

[mvdgaag]

I'm not saying a 3bet would be standard if he had AQ, but he might do it once in a while and some players to it all the time (esp in position), so it's a bit less likely he has it.

He might have picked up a flush draw next to a pair or a straight and flush draw next to a pair. I think there are still a lot of hands you can beat. I don't like the situation either and think folding/calling does not differ a lot here, I just call because I can't lay down kings, I guess /images/graemlins/smile.gif. A bet on the turn might have blocked this.

He could do this with any draw or any K...

Looks like you missed the flop... Lead the turn Pls and fold if raised.

[danny8]

thanks for the responses!

i cant b/f the turn, if i lead he can only minraise me AI... no way im ever folding to that.

seems like leading is better than checking, I guess if im planning to call i should just bet myself just in case he is actually drawing (unlikely IMO).

so i guess it comes down to c/f or b/c

[Loc0Loc0]

Thought the stacks where deeper. Sorry...

Than Its B/C... But if you check i call to. U inducing to much bluffs/AI from worse hands than better ones.
