If this is your first orbit at the table, then I fold to his 3bet.

Min check raise is no good here because he has an overpair a lot here and AK is the only hand you're folding out in his range.

After he calls your cr, you need to cf turn.

I ... Fold preflop. Fold flop. Fold turn out of turn.

Re: $50nl Suited Conns UTG
 

fold preflop to 3bet, no way you can play this profitably post.

c/c or c/f flop, c/r is only getting called by the part of his range that beats you.

Now that we've reached turn, if I have more than half my stack in and have represented strength I'm going to open push and see if he can fold his overpair.

Re: $50nl Suited Conns UTG
 

Provided you ask this sort of questions, fold preflop. I dont mean fold to a reraise, I mean just fold.

Re: $50nl Suited Conns UTG
 

If you've just arrived at the table and have no sense of how this table is running I agree, this is a fold pre. Also, if you've just arrived at the table, what are you doing posting UTG?

Re: $50nl Suited Conns UTG
 

Raising UTG with SCs is fine.
Calling the 3bet is bad absent reads.
Calling the 3bet then falling in love with TP is horrible.

If you're going to checkraise, make it bigger. A min checkraise can scare Villain, but fold equity is small, you need to follow up on the next street.

As played, I'm torn between c/f and shoving. A shove here will probably get villian to fold JJ, certainly overcards.
QQ is a tossup, AA/KK is always calling. We have a fair amount of outs against those overcards, so I think semibluff shoving is okay in this spot.

Because this is your first orbit, I think the benefit to your image tips the decision towards shoving.

Re: $50nl Suited Conns UTG
 

Only real bet you can make is a push though I really hate your flop raise. I could see calling his flop bet pushing the turn but as played you really dont have enough to push the majority of his range off this hand

a couple things here.... LOL AT CORSAKH.... and ocdscale ure giving him too much fe... for me aa-qq =SNAP CALL especially against someone i dont know... people show down all sorts of crap here...jj= probably call and 99-tt=tossup... hero wtf fold to 3bet pf

Re: $50nl Suited Conns UTG
 

You absolutely must fold this to a 3bet pre-flop. I think I found out why - you have no idea where you're at, and you're investing your entire stack on a marginal hand
