$400/800 HU turn

[Schneids]

7 handed. UTG+1 limps. I raise with AJo in the SB. SenorFlush from Partypoker fame 3-bets in the BB. We know eachother somewhat well and have lots of history both from internet battles and lots of hours vs eachother the past week. SenorFlush also has a nice little rivalry with the limper, and those two are going back and forth quite often. He even says outloud, "I would have called but you are in so I have to 3-bet." Limper folds, I call.

Flop T98. I check, he bets, I raise, he calls. Turn 9. I check, he bets. Can/should I checkraise here? Can he call down with 66? I feel like he has a small pocket pair here so often. If I check/call the turn is the river a check/fold barring improvement (ie T, 8, Q, 7, J, A)?

i dont think bluffing on this board is a good idea with your table image.

getting 3-bet sucks.

Online, this guy won't ever fold a piece of that board.

Agree 120%. I wouldn't try it because he's 3bet the turn 3 ways and check called the river with AK high before.

Is it possible that we shouldn't try and make a play at this pot at all? No flop check-raise, no turn check-raise, no weird donkbets anywhere? That was my first instinct when reading the hand.

yeah, nothing wrong with c/c, c/c, c/c (or even c/f river)

Right. Except that's how I play this hand almost always. And if I almost always play this hand this way, then I'm pretty exploitable.

What stopped you from betting the turn? I guess if he has 66 two c/r's is more likely to get him to laydown than one and a turn lead??

I played multiple hands with unorthodox styles vs him specifically and I checked mainly hoping he would check behind with a better hand, fearing a c/r.

I can also see 55 or something bet/folding this turn.

I think you are better off in this hand calling the flop and checkraising the turn, but the way you played it I would just bet the turn. I don't think checkraising the turn is worth it. Having checked the turn, I would just call.
