Rate my first 3barrel with A hi

[smartalecc5]

Ok, well it worked and he folded so I guess I got lucky.


the reasoning as stated makes sense as to why my bets shouldn't have worked and I probably wont be trying this again in the future. This is probably why I don't 3barrel.

If he folded, you had the best hand.

I think it's a bad spot to 2-barrel but once I 2-barrel I don't see much problem w/ 3-barreling. what does he possibly ck/ca two streets on a board like this that can call a river bet?

of course turn betsizing sucks, but aside from that ...

Learn how to play short-handed poker. I'm not agreeing with the hand, but 5-handed I'm raising it up with AJo 4BBs every day of the week.

I think Nation knows that, and that he meant "fold pf, if you're going to do this postflop"

If hero was betting to protect made str8 from FD in 4-way pot, what is better flop bet? Closer to pot? More?

I actually like it, although I rarely 3 barrel myself. UTG prob does not have an overpair here, or he can be moved off it. If he did, he is checking out of caution cause pot is multiway, and this board is dangerous vs an overpair with 3 others in. I mean if UTG likes his A7, A8, overpair, enough to call 3 barrels, why wouldnt he bet out to protect his hand here? When you bet the flop you're really rooting for the blinds to go away quietly. My guess is on the turn he called cause hes getting 3 to 1 and isnt quite ready to drop his overpair yet, or has something like KcQc. If it is the overpair, that river bet to him says his overpair can only pick off a 3 barrel bluff. Personally I would wait to see who is bluffable before doing this but good play.

I don't mind the 3barrel really but you gota bet more than just half pot on turn and 2/3 river
