Default Re: Busted flush leaves 2-pair

3bet flop. I'm tempted to cap the turn.

wookie. I dont see the difference between this hand and this thread which you helped me on.

Both involve a pair and flush draw on the flop with hero being OOP against aggression. IN both hands the hero's pair likely isn't good but he has tons of equity. Both hands also feature a third party who's just going along for the ride and padding hte pot.

My guesses:

1. There, drawing to two-pair Qs and Ts is much weaker than drawing to two pair As and 7s because overcards can pair in the QT hand counterfieting your hand, but not here. (well the J could pair counterfieting your 2-pair and possibly exposing you to trips, but if you'd now be splitting instead of being behind)


2. If the Q came in the QTs hand, there is a redraw to straights or a straight could be out there, though unlikely. Here there is no threat.

3. Not sure how correct this is but a 3-bet is less dangerous to villian than a cap. In a 3-bet he still might cap allowing you to c/r if you improve the turn. But if you cap he will slow down and you won't get 2 bets out of him on the turn. Still, many people slow down to a 3-bet.
