Standard business w/ TPTK
 

Villain is a decent TAG playing something like 22/17/3.8 and I'm playing TAG w/ similar stats. This is such a standard spot and I'm fairly sure I know what to do, but just want to make sure I'm right - so what's your standard?

Everest Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $3.00/$6.00 (HH Converter by Kreatief)

CO ($808.00)
Button ($600.00)
SB ($579.00)
BB ($733.00)
MP2 ($404.86)
MP3 ($532.00) (Hero)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $21.00</font>, <font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, Button calls $21.00, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>,

Flop: 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ( $51 )

Nah, I think he most likely call. If it had been CO vs button, or button vs blinds I'm fairly sure he 3-bet it though.

Re: Standard business w/ TPTK
 

If villain is any good you should atleast call.

dont fold

Re: Standard business w/ TPTK
 

id call and reevaluate, there arnt many draws out there though with the Ah on board... no history im assuming??

Re: Standard business w/ TPTK
 

Nah, no history.

I can play it two ways, either call and crai on blank turn or get it in right now.

Re: Standard business w/ TPTK
 

why CR turn?
isnt his range 333, 888, A8 (A3) air FD and (AQ)

seems like a turn CR only gets you action when you are behind and it only has the benefit of catching his second barrel (and maybe a FD is priced in there)

i would 3bet now or call/fold depending on how many barrels you feel he has

more value from air

If he is aggressive as he appears to be then call, but this means you will likely be faced with further aggression and will have to face a bet on the turn. A fold is still fine a lot of the time.
