Hero?

(I think Flop bet was too small, s/b $6-$7. Also, considering his Turn bet size I felt CRAI was way too large. Now he 3-bets...push/fold/flat call and re-eval?)

Bet more on flop and lead turn.

This spot sucks because he close to always has the flush here but..


1:push
2:???
3:profit

I definitely think betting more on the flop is correct, as you have already said.

I think check-raising the turn is a dangerous move because of exactly what happened. You have basically forced yourself into a tough decision. I'd rather see you lead the turn or check-call.

As played, I would probably just call his tiny turn bet, rather than raise, and hope that you fill up on the river because I think you're beat at this point by a flush.

If you lead turn for $12-$16 do you fold to a normal-sized raise? If he min-raises?
