Preflop: I might even cap this when in touch with the Force. Flop: You might as well 3-bet and try to blow the SB, BB and CO out of the big pot facing them with 24:3. BB probably missed with AK or is passive. If either UTG caps it's time go to call-down mode bar the board and action getting really ugly later. Waiting to turn really doesn't help much to protect your hand. It's going to be 13-14BB anyway. |

Cap preflop for value, even if the 3-bettor has TT, JJ AK, or even QQ you're still profiting from the cap.
Flop is an easy 3-bet for value, they could be doing this with flush draws, a weaker queen and the pot is so big you would like to fold out Ks, and bottom and middle pair. |

3betting the flop for value is ok, but i'm tempted to call, see what everyone does, and then hopefully pop the turn. this will also save us a bet or two when the turn is a [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. |

[/ QUOTE ] I like this line better. You act right after the flop raiser so you can face the field with two on a safe turn. |

Re: huge pot, protect Q split pair, A kicker on flop
*grunch*
If the table is crazy and they’re playing all sorts of junk preflop (even raising with them), then I’m capping with Aqs preflop. You have no reason to believe anyone has QQ+ or AK, so go for it! On the flop: I still see no reason to believe we don’t have the best hand, so I’m 3-betting. If anything, it’ll fold the BB who was the preflop raiser, and that may clear some ace-outs if we’re behind. If it gets capped, I’m still raising any non-club on the turn. Only when the (safe) turn gets 3-bet do I call down. |

Re: huge pot, protect Q split pair, A kicker on flop
Nice Table.
With such a juicy hand PF, I'd cap that trapping all those bets. Pot exploded here and while i tend to agree with you that you have the best hand on the flop - i'd actually just call the flop and hope that UTG+1 is able to bet first on the turn. Then I'd spring to life. Obviously the turn card will be a factor and if it's two bets to you on the turn you need to re-evaluate your hand. In short, I give up a little on the flop, to hopefully get it down to fewer opponents by showdown,. Sarge[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] |
