i would love to know how to play this type of hand as well. my stats are somewhat similar to this guy's and i think you're beat on river way too often to call.

I don't see any reason to slow down on the turn. I would bet about $9. If villain calls the flop and then raises the turn its usually a monster and we can let go. As played I would fold the river. The only hands we are beating are weaker aces and I think a lot of the time villain will have AT, 88, 1010 here.

this is what i was thinking but look at his stats, he easily 3bets these hands? surely?

[STARSCREAM.]

Bet/fold the turn. As played river is an insta muck.

[Joefish126]

I don't think villain is 3beting us pf with those hands when we raise utg. If we'd been on the button or cutoff then I would agree with you.

I don't think that he would 3-bet those hands to an UTG raiser.

[WhiteWolf]

With stats like that, we can assume villain knows big bets are for big hands. I agree the only thing we really beat is a bluff.

What was the result?

I don't think you should have slowed down on the turn. I would lean towards a call on the river because as said you unintentionally gave villian the impression that you were C betting the flop and slowed on the turn. The fact you raised UTG suggests either pair or Ax so if you had a pair you'd C bet flop to rep A. I don't think with stats like his he will just call with 8s or 10s espeically when you raised UTG. i mean he can't just expect to flop a set and hope to stack your Ax can he

[shyturtle27]

OOP I think you need to lead the turn for sure and fold to a raise. If called then b/f river. If he's floaty and attacks weakness then the c/r all in is perfect. As played I would lead the river, but fold to any action.
