monotone: the wall of sound

[MitchL]

Flop is fine. Obv you are cr'ing. Sucks it got checked through. I think the river bet is fine, but you have to fold to a raise if it bricks off. I really cant put him on anything, but like a black AQ that is trying protect against a hand exactly like the one you are holding. If anything your turn 3bet and river bet is as a bluff to fold out a Qxd, but I wouldnt make this play just based on that.

What were your intentions on the flop? Were you going for a C/R? Slowplaying? I think I'd be donking this to fold out non- [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] kings and queens.

Both of them may well pay to see the river with any rag- [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

With 2 broadway [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] cards out, I think we don't need to worry too much about a made flush, but our Jacks are still vulnerable. I think I'd be donking this flop.

That being said the Turn bet still isn't horrible, just the 3-bet seems soo much worse now.

I dont want to get into a semantics battle about the nature of the turn bet. Instead of saying the turn bet is bad, I shouldve said, Im convinced checking the turn will make us more money than betting the turn.

Clearly donking the Flop is the correct play...having seen the Flop get checked through.

Honestly, result oriented much people?

Check-raising the flop gets us the most value in lieu of a read that both players would let a flop like this get checked through. The only thing we can do is make a note and donk the next monotone flop where we have top pair+ NFD.

I really dont like this turn 3 bet. I cant think of any legit reason to do it against a sd prone opponent.

Some people are more altruistic than others. TT must be a very generous person. I would also like to add that I think the turn bet itself is bad.

I posted this hand because I didn't like my decisions on multiple streets yet at the same time my options were interesting so i thought it would make a good discussion. I didn't like my flop check, I didn't like my turn 3-bet, and the river bet line was suspect as well. I disagree about the turn, I think leading is the best line but in general I totally agree the 3-bet was spew; I have no idea what i was thinking at the time. The moment I 3-bet I regretted it (perhaps I was psychologically compensating for the missed bet on the flop - who knows - but I wasn't happy with my decision).
