AK

[Perseus]

Spy,

I play it the same and usually Bet/Call river. I think this way gets max value from a smaller A or weaker pair, and even two pair or trips will sometimes not raise the river, especially when the A hits.

I do not like 3 betting the flop.

My second option is to check/raise the turn.

Sounds like you're concerned that Hero's hand is not the best.

Besides losing to AA (only *ONE* possible hand combination) or a split pot, or the slight chance of 77 .... I'd say Hero has the best hand a large majority of the time.


Secondly, what are your reasons for not liking a flop 3-bet?

I like to mix it up, although I 3bet the flop more frequently, because the hand plays out easier that way.

[coolandtough]

mix it up between options 1,2,3. Why in the world would you, OOP, not put more bets in on the flop and turn?

I always 3-bet on the flop but I can see a lot of high pp's calling down for one bet on the river if checked behind after failing to check-raise the turn...interesting hand.
