there has to be a better way of playing this. It looks soo transparent.

Maximum extractaments against JJ-KK.

The real beauty of this play is that it allows you to do this bluffing/semi-bluffing down the line.

The only other remotely correct way is CRAI, but since we don't know that this villian will bet the flop, it's not optimal. Remember, villian's PF play reeks of AK here.

If he has AK of clubs he's calling this anyways and we charged the max, and if he has no club or only one, he's not betting the flop for us in any event. If he has an overpair he calls, and if he flopped a set well tough luck.

I would CRAI but that's because I assume everyone will bet this flop if they've called $68 preflop. But I suck at poker so it cannot be the right play!

I mainly am referring to the preflop spot. I agree we can't just call and allow the original raiser to get in there for a nice price so that the pot is multiway.

It just looked like when orange repops to $68 that he has exactly what he has and then he still keeps his cards face up on the table by following it up with a push on the flop.

I think I like the checkraise all in. It may let a guy go crazy with QQ/KK putting us on AK and trying to make us pay.

I think everyone is missing Orange's PF play here. He called the first PFR. Nothing transparent about this play at all. nh. Even if Orange was the original PFR, then 4b, then pushed this flop, it's a nh. Dude only has a 2/3 sized pot bet left anyway. Just stick it in there.

i think you played the hand well but very transparent as stated

[Paul Thomson]

i like just calling the 3-bet preflop and check-raising most any flop.

[ikestoys]

this play isn't transparent at all. i'd be confused as hell if i was villain. i think c/r or lead is fine... the drawiness of the board doesn't worry me at all

HOW IS THIS TRANSPARENT...after I cc pf, my range is almost always like a pp/sc/whatever in villan's eyes. after he squeezes, i look like a frustrated tag who is sick of ppl squeezing here. i rarely, if ever, have AK here or anything stronger.

[FGators]

i didnt notice you called the original raise. Alright, alright...nice hand.
