I usually bet flop OOP as the PF-3better, so I don't get bluffed off my hand and don't have to do guessing games wether he has an ace or not.

I don't see the point in betting the river though. No better hands folds, and no worse hands call. I would c/c his bluff/TT or w/e.

I thought I was checking the flop to avoid being pushed away by draws.
On the river I thought I could get value out of TT, 9x. He can't put me on a 6..

Who will raise your cbet after a 3bet pf with a plain draw?

i was in this spot the other day. I quite like a turn bet to get value out of JJ/TT (esp the ones with a spade in) and Ksx depending on how light he called pre.

thoughts?

Oh an I usually bet this flop - but checking it ok too.

What is you plan on the turn? C/f is too weak, I would bet here and hope he has a stubborn PP
