I don't think he called $85 more with just a draw, but I could be wrong. Looks a lot more like a turned two pair or something, yeah?

I can see a draw here. I have taken lines like this and get shown ridic stuff on the river. More likely than 2 pair though is 87/67/57 so a check is probably better against those hands

yeah I don't hate a check/call

I disagree that a lot of his range isn't draws. He could easily have a combo draw.

Plus you lose less if he did boat up. Bet/folding river would make me feel sick

Villain is 40/20 ish. Clear bet right, but how much? Also, is this a bet/fold or a bet/call if we get raised? I'm pretty sure I hate this river card since a decent amount of his range filled up, meh. Opinions?

clean up your outs. Someone else might have a higher flush draw or 9T and and kill your str8 outs if the 9T straight hits

3 betting the flop probably doesn't fold out higher flush draws (this is Party Poker after all). And T9 does not steal any of my outs. 6 makes me the nuts and a T gives me the second nut straight, only behind Q9 which is a flopped gutshot. And if I hit a flush when somebody makes a straight I could win a biggish pot, fwiw.

What I meant was that if a Q or 7 hit, and your up against 9T, your can no longer win the pot with your str8 outs. (although honestly, this only a minor point with regard to this hand) Basically, What I was saying was that your not really drawing to the nuts in this hand, so I could definitely see merit in 3betting. however I've never played at party, and I don't know if your have FE.

I definitely think that both calling and 3betting are both +ev, but being OOP in this hand, I'd be more inclined to 3bet.

I do. I generally have a huge equity advantage, yet probably the worst hand. I want to 3-bet and get them to fold better hands. If they play back I have a strong enough hand to get AI. The flop is my last chance at fold equity and by calling the minraise I have minimized the payoff if I hit.

I would 3-bet this to $35 and prepare to lead strongly on the turn if I hit any of my outs. I would also lead strongly any non-spade Q/K/A on the turn.

I don't have a huge equity advantage at all, and the point is that I'm not really folding out that many hands by 3 betting, plus stack sizes are pretty akward. One guy has 50bbs and I'd gladly get it in against him, and the other guy I am 200bbs deep with who I definitely don't want to get all in with OR force out with a 3bet. I really wouldn't even want to get all in here with 100bbs in a limped pot with just a draw.

The thing is if I 3 bet the flop I get BB to fold hands that I want him sticking around with. If I hit my straight and he turns two pair or something like what happened here, I could win a big pot. If I 3bet the flop I doubt he sticks around with one pair. Sure I might have some fold equity, but the pot isn't big at this point so I'm not really worried about fold equity in a 20bb pot.

And as you see here, I was able to win a lot in a limped pot playing the flop passively by making an oversized turn raise. If the board hadn't paired I probably would have bet near pot on the river and he undoubtedly would have called with his two pair and I would have netted like 150bbs+.

The point is that I'm not looking for fold equity and when I go crazy and 3 bet the flop I'm folding out a lot of hands that might pay me off big time later in the hand.

In the long run you want to fold out J6 in this hand on the flop, but the results have skewed your mindset. The turn card (and the other non-spade 6) was the only card he could have hit that would pay off your oversized turn bet.

Also, I raise this preflop about 95% of the time.
