you're a little better off calling the 3-bet and raising the turn from LP. this way you use your positional advantage. do you see how the cap provides your opponent with valuable information that he would otherwise have to guess at? he knows that you have a made hand and you know that he knows this as well. furthermore, he knows that you know that he knows. if he has a hand that he can safely fold to a turn raise, the cap enables him to do so. therefore he bets out. now, instead of raising because; you may be in the lead by a sufficient enough margin; to make the draw pay; and for the free showdown in the event that you don't improve, not to mention that if you are reraised you will be able to make the call with ease, instead gar you have wasted these, your precious positional rights, and have given your opponent both barrels while holding open throttle.

This sounds interesting, but I can't understand it because the wording, spelling and punctuation is unclear. Could you please rephrase this?

Basically what I got from you is that if you call the 3bet and raise the turn you will get calldowns from worse hands. Is that correct?

Thanks for any elaboration.
