Hi jk3a,

I'm hoping to hit an 8 with maybe 1 overcard and everything that's better or a good draw.

I'm not planning to fold when I improve, that totally depends on the amount he bets and how I improve.

You talk about calling the flop and reevaluating on the turn. There is nothing to reevaluate on the turn unless you improve a lot, probably only an 8 or A. He's going to bet. He bets $75 on the flop, you call and the pot is $225. He will bet at least $125 on the turn, now why call the flop when you know this?

Thanks,

Guido

Guido, it's called playing poker. If villian is betting anything, and he keeps betting no matter what, they obviously you can make thin calls. If he isn't then whether and how much he bets gives you info. It's not an easy hand OOP but the c/r plan is just like playing the hand as a bluff.

op - heres a plan: try to get to showdown and dont toss your stack in like you have the best hand all the time. Usually all you have is a bluff catcher.

Did he 3bet to 38 total? (as in, a min-reraise?)

Also, I would probably check/call flop check/call this specific turn and check/evaluate on the river (maybe bet a heart or club + a few more rivers). This way you allow him to bluff while still keeping the pot relatively small

if he really is so agressive that he will keep betting every street then just check/call down if you think you're ahead of his range. if you're not ahead of his range or you don't like variance then check/fold flop.
