It\'s a tarp NLTRN
 
I'd raised my button the first 7 hands. Opp called the first few, this is the second time he reraised to 160(folded to the first one).

Poker Stars, $22 + $1 NL Hold'em Tournament, 10/20 Blinds, 2 Players
LegoPoker Hand History Converter

Hero (SB): 1,360
BB: 1,640

Pre-Flop: (30) 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (SB)
<font color="red">Hero raises to 60</font>, <font color="red">BB raises to 160</font>, Hero calls 100

Flop: (320) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, Hero checks

Turn: (320) 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
BB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets 220</font>, <font color="red">BB raises to 1,480 and is All-In</font>, Hero folds

Results: 760 Pot
BB mucked and WON 760 (+380 NET)

I'm always suspicious of three bettors who check the flop. Is betting the flop here standard - I'm committed if he raises and not super thrilled about getting it in. How bout the turn?

His flop play is a little suspicious, but I still think you should bet. BB sometimes has a small/medium pocket pair here and even if he check-raises, I think pushing is okay for you. Also his PF play might've been a reaction to your PF raising, he could've been trying to keep you honest with your preflop raises, and then he got scared on the flop.

I bet on this flop.

I think I would have bet on this flop, but I would be glad to hear from some more experienced players.

Also, do you think villain always have TP+ after his turn c/r?? donīt he ever do this with an OESD worst FD,or a worst 8? because if he does than i think we would have to call his turn shove getting over 1.5-1

What about pretty insane option of pushing the flop for a significant overbet? It seems insane, but look at it that way. If you do that, he won't checkraise you on a bluff, which might be the best hand with AK. You also don't want to call his checkraise, knowing that you have the worst hand or if he has AQ, a coin flip, JJ, TT, he probably calls because he puts you on a draw, but it is still a flip. He doesn't have any fold equity that way. Seems reckless, but it is probably good. You deny him fold equity and if he calls, it is probably a coin flip, or if he has kings or aces, it is still not the end of the world.

Yeah, I'm not sure if the turn fold was right. He def has air some percentage of the time - I'm not sure about a worse made hand though (like an 8) - that seems pretty unlikely.

Overbetting here isn't crazy. It's probably +EV and would have turned out to be better than what I did. However, I'd like the idea 50 times more if I was OOP. I feel like I should be able to use pos to my advantage here somehow as I have pretty well disguised flush draw.
