Looks good to me. Once you raise, you have to get it in after he 3-bets. Not sure if I raise the flop here. It seems like we are turning TP + FD into just a FD since he probably isn't going to be getting it in too light 200bb deep... could be wrong though.

me likey.

Re: NL400 HU TPGK+fd flop decision
 

Calling the flop would be nice this deep... I'm not an HU expert though, if the game was very agressive with lots of raising you should also raise this flop probably, so you force him to get it in light vs. your monsterdraw.

He is 17/13 at 6max? So I am assuming he is still a nit HU?

I don't think a nit would put 200bb into this flop without a set. I definitely like a call on this flop. You aren't getting called by anything you beat. Since you have Jd..JdTd is out and so is AdJd. I don't think the nit puts it in here with these hands anyways.

I don't see why you can't fold after he 3bets you on the flop. Only hand you have decent equity against is AA

Re: NL400 HU TPGK+fd flop decision
 

he has KQ/KK/QQ/77 most likely, less often AK or AA. without stoving it, i think you can actually get away once he 3bets. i'd have just called flop and no, not being results-oriented. i'm a lot more likely to raise with bottom pair + FD than with top pair + FD, because obv one wants FE more and one has SD value without improving

edit: but i should add there's nothing particularly wrong with raising. it is HU after all and you have a big hand. i dont get what you accomplish by raising that big though.. not like you're that concerned with pricing out draws. if you are gonna raise i like a smaller raise to $140-$150 and then a fold in the rare case that he 3bets big

Re: NL400 HU TPGK+fd flop decision
 

the raise on the flop is fine (the amount too), once he 3bets you're probably not the favourite but I'd gamble it up anyway hu.

Re: NL400 HU TPGK+fd flop decision
 

HU i doubt we fold a better hand with our raise.. making our raise not too great.

btw u realize AK and AA are the only hands we get it in against with where we have 50% equity... any other time its like just a flush draw

Re: NL400 HU TPGK+fd flop decision
 

too deep for this imo, 100 bb is OK, 200 bb I call flop or raise and fold to 3 bet. When he 3 bets he's playing for stacks 200 bbs deep and has ATdd or a set most of the time. He could have AdAx.

That is how id play it OOP, i call flop here...
