This raise is too small isn't it? How much should it be? What's my plan for the rest of the hand?


edit: Villain is 29/12/3, bad tag

my note on him says "3 barrel low pair on A high flop, i calldown AT"

I'd smooth call the flop for starters unless you have a read or something.

I don't hate a smoothcall, but I'm curious - what would your flop raising range be here then?

[schundler]

stats on utg? is he a reg?

55 is ok on flop here I think.

Prob a set, AK diamonds, air. I think we're making it easy to play against us if we're raising this here because there isn't an A high FD for him, so maybe KQ diamonds or sets (QQ/KK maybe too) for him. I think raising folds all better hands and gets it in w/ 2 outs way too often. The best way to get value from AJ is to call here I think, since he's prob betting to fold to our raise 175BB deep.

Hrm makes sense. What do you make of his bet sizing?

It's small, ya, but I don't see nearly enough that can call our raise that we beat. So I'd rather just call here and try to get a bet on the turn/river as well instead of raising and folding or getting stacked.

Yah I meant it looked sort of suspicious to me. He raised UTG, flat called the 3bet, and then donked out half pot into jack-rag-rag board in a 3way reraised pot, and we have the ace of diamonds. I'm having a hard time ranging him here given this action.

Raise more preflop, raise more on the flop, try to get it all in.
