Oaks 15/30 , two barrels or one barrel?
15/30 at the Oaks. I got a good image. Have shown down mostly strong hands, and have a lot of chips in front of me. Previous round I won a huge pot, flopping pair+NFD, turn aces up and river the nutflush, to beat a lower two pair and a smaller flush. Very next hand I 3bet an EP raiser, and MP coldcaller w/ AQs in LP and fired 2-barrels on a K244 board to eventually lose to EP's 99 after blank river went check-check. I mucked my hand w/o showing if that makes a difference.
Villain has been playing mostly TAGish straightforward. Liked to open somewhat light in LP though. I think he's paying attention somewhat, but is also watching MNF off and on. 2 EP limpers, villain raises in MP, I 3-bet AQo in the CO. Limpers fold surprisingly, villain calls. Flop 555r Villain checks, I bet, villain calls. Turn K, completing the rainbow. Villain checks, I? |

My god, def bet. You could easily get him to fold AJ/AQ here and you have an annoying but not-so-tough fold to a raise. If the river comes an A, Q, or J then you should bet again. else, check.

Do you consider your preflop play standard or are you only doing it against this villian?
Turn is an easy bet/fold for me. |

Bet.
No need for him to think you double barrel w/o the goods everytime here. If he C/R, fold complaining that QQ is never good. |

Re: Oaks 15/30 , two barrels or one barrel?
Yep def goofed this one. For some reason I frooze and checked behind, probably because of my failed two-barrel the previous round w/ the same hand which is obv a bad reason. River blank went check-check and I chopped the pot vs. villain's ATs. As I thought about the hand driving home I concluded the turn is a must-bet because 1. he'll likely fold hands I'm choppping with (worse aces) and 2. since I 3bet pre, most villains (incorrectly) will put me on a decent pair or AK, maybe AQ. If he got a smallish pair 66-99, the K is great card for me as now he might think he can't beat a bigger pair or AK, and fold a smaller pair which is obv great result for me. The only drawback is if he decides to c/r bluff a worse hand repping the K, but in hindsight I shoud've known that this particular player was very unlikely to do this, and hence I could easily fold to a c/r.

I got a good hand, but one that doesn't play great vs. a lot of opponents so by 3betting 1. I'll likely buy the button and 2. hopefully knock the blinds out and maybe one or both of the limpers and get HU. 3-betting will also increase my postflop FE on boards I don't hit, something I failed to take advantage of in the hand in question. Obv if a rock raises in front of me, I'll probably not 3bet, but vs. most players in this game I routinely will. Is my thinking sound about this preflop? |
