Raise or Call River Bet?
 
New here, looking forward to comparing hands...
Do I 3-bet this river or just call?

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG+1 with 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#cc0000">CO 3-bets</font>, 2 folds, BB calls, Hero calls.

First read this: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showfl...e=0#Post8857864

Also, c/r the flop because slowplaying on this board just costs you bets and 3-bet the river because you have the best hand pretty much always.

Thanks for showing me to the guide!

If I check raise the flop, do I bet out on the turn? Won't my opponent then probably just call down for 1 bet on turn and 1 on river instead of 2 on the turn and 1 on river most of the time?

If he has a hand he'd put more then one bet in with on the turn, he's probably 3-betting the flop. c/r'ing the turn tells him you have a monster. If you c/r the flop, he will often call down something weak believing you could be on a bluff. In other words, c/r'ing the flop let's your opponent make some big mistakes. Waiting for the turn allows him to play correctly a lot by either checking through or bet/folding. Therefore, c/r the flop.
