hmmm.. how about a 3bet on the flop. especially if he'll play weakly with a queen there..

Is that for a free card??

mostly value, but possible free card depending on turn, more likely i'd bet the turn and take a free showdown UI.

i'm not so sure this can be interpreted as a value 3-bet, as my thinking is that he is pretty strong. i think that so far, he has been a pretty non-tricky player from the description, and when someone plays pretty tight/weak, and they make a big hand, the first thing they think about is "get more money in how? check raise!"

your only out here is the gutshot i would think most of the time especially how he continues to fire on all streets.


also, this isnt a bad spot to just limip in here in your position either. K-10 isnt that strong of a hand, where you figure you must raise to create max value. K-10 is one of those hands that you find yourself drawing to straights and/or flushes (if suited). it has some high card value but not as much as you would think. but reguardless, raising is never really a bad thing.

in your spot here i check/fold the river even though the pot size is pretty good.. i just dont see what you can beat here besides a busted straight draw.
