check/fold?
You're behind every legitimate hand he can hold: TT+,AT+,KT+,QT+ And i'm not sure if he holds AT/QT vs AK/AQ/KQ enough of the time that he'll consider folding to a bet. |

[/ QUOTE ] Yeh, I check/folded. What about the rest of the hand leading up to that? preflop: could call and play for set value or carefully w/ one pair, but we often will win his raise right there, and often have the best hand, etc. flop: sucks, but I felt compelled to chase any fold equity, you c-bet here? turn: yeh, c/f, I guess. |

This second hand is WAY different than the first and I'm betting this one.

Is 3-betting 99 standard?
It seems like a light hand to be going to war with, and I'd be constantly terrified of a bigger overpair. |

It seems like we're in good shape against the opening range of most players, and we'll probably pick up a bunch of pots preflop, right? These postflop situations are probably a good argument against it, but it seemed 'standard' at the time... |

[/ QUOTE ] If you dont not have a plan, cannot adapt your plan, or just play this flop, 3 betting is a bad idea imo |
