I wouldn't 3-bet that turn. What would hand hand range be? You have top and 3rd pair with a draw that's not even to the wheel. Once he raises you on the turn cool down a bit.

why is raising pre-flop good ...?
Notice I said, "if you're going to play the hand at all" implying raising is better than calling. Also, note that this is 30/60, not 1/2 where raises are frequently called without thought.

As far as the texture of the game, I agree, raising pre-flop is probably the best play. If you truly believed your reads on the players behind you, then good job. As far as the flop goes, I like your play, try to slow him down a bit. As far as the turn goes, I'm starting to believe that either A) somehow my hand is not good, or B)he has a huge draw that I will only get paid off if he makes it. If he's got a hand like A-4-5-Q or something of the sort, you are not in the best of shape. I'm not into pushing those hands where you are getting scooped, quartered, or halved alot.
If he indeed has that hand, his hands value is greater than yours.

Im curious, after threebetting the turn, are you going to showdown no matter what? what rivers will you fold to? what rivers will you check?

On the one hand i like the aggressive play, you have a decent shot in both directions. On the other hand, i doubt you can be that far ahead, and you could be pretty far behind.

results?
