on hand 1, try saving your aggression until the turn. you have less equity on the flop (i'm assuming he has an ace) than you do on the turn, and the bets are bigger on that street.

I was thinking about this. I think raising the flop the first time around is a no-brainer, but if I just call SB's 3bet and LP calls I'll have gotten 1 BB less in from the Villains on the flop. On the turn, if I raise I figure it will often knock LP out, so I'll still only get 2 BBs from the villains on the turn (although I'm more likely to win the pot), just like I did by capping the flop and betting the turn.

It looks to me like I typically get less money in when I wait to the turn to raise. Now, if I was last to act I think I would prefer the line you suggested. Thoughts?
