QQ- need some help with this

[annkath]

Ok, I'm finally going to post. I read a lot but was always bashful to post so I figure best way for me to learn is open myself up for contructive criticism. This is the typical hand I get caught up in that just kills me. That raise UTG had me thinking he was at least on an Ace and witha call on the flop.... [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

What do you feel the purpose with your flop bet is?

[annkath]

Obviously still learning....I figured I'd get an idea whether he was on that Ace or not...like I said,these always seem to cripple me. I don't know where to go when that A flops

Preflop is good, but what range is villian calling your 3bet with? Ax beats us, AA-JJ beat us, and that's the majority of his range imo. If you must cbet based on a read or something, make it a real bet, like 1/2-2/3 of the pot. On the flop, I would avoid cbetting, however, as he's crushing our range here.

Check behind on the flop. Call/Bet the turn, re-evaluate if u get resistance on the river.
You did not c-bet the flop, u made a donk-bet.

Correct. You get no information by him calling when he gets like 6 to 1
