Villain is a good 2+2er with 28/21 stats. I don't have much history with him as I don't play 3/6 much. I think he 3bet me once pf and I folded OOP. My image might be a little aggro but prolly doesn't make a big diff.

Flop I sometimes fold, sometimes call. The small bet confused me. Not sure how he interprets my flop call and/or my timing down, but I think when he checks the turn, his range is either super strong (QQ,AA,KK,AQ,87s) or super weak (99,AK,AJ, maybe AT &amp; some SCs) but specifically not KQ,QJ,JJ,TT. I dunno, I guess I could be way off here but that's what I felt during the hand. So.. do I check or bet-call?

wtf

check, you may have the best hand, and you picked up a decent draw that cant stand a c/r

Re: (3/6nl) AWKWARDDDDD
 

Its actually a sort of an interesting spot, but its still a check in my books.

Re: (3/6nl) AWKWARDDDDD
 

Why do you think hes not checking 88-JJ on the turn? (jw)

but anyways, super easy check

Re: (3/6nl) AWKWARDDDDD

check sometimes, shove sometimes. in villain's eyes, you're not shoving 99-JJ here and the board has 2 baby cards which could have hit you hard. he has reaaaaaal trouble calling you with 99-JJ here and possibly KQ and AQ. The only way to win this hand against a wide villain's range (99+ KQ+) is to shove here and if he makes a hero call with 99-JJ and KQ and even AQ, as KK-AA can fall under range, you still have outs to fall back on. In short though, if you shove, only hands that snap call are KK-AA and QQ but you fold out a lot of marignal hands that beat you on showdown.
