there are a decent amount of big draws + villain would be less likely to raise a worse draw this deep

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't think many draws but the NFD can really be considered big. OESD + FD isn't really worth 200bbs here for villain. He is probably priced in to calling though, which isn't a good thing.

How likely villain is to raise various weakish draws like an OESD or bare medium/weak FD is pretty player dependent.

Also, our hand looks exactly like either top pair or a draw if we call, and villain probably expects us to fold a lot of our range to a turn bet. Of those big draws, a lot of them will commit on a blank turn where our equity is much greater. FWIW, I would likely fold to a big turn bet if the flush completes.

This is all assuming villain is a good solid tag who can read hands and situations well, of course.

i see what you're saying. i guess the answer is that it depends. There will be some boards where i'll be more inclined to call with a set, and some boards where i'll be more inclined to 3b. This board is the latter, but i can def see calling. I don't think there is a default play here and one might not necessarily be better then the other.

3betting is obviously the "standard" play, but I do think calling in this spot will pay off more in the long run than 3betting. By calling our hand is very disguised. If I'm villain I am double barrelling like my entire range if he calls the flop and the turn doesn't change much, it's a great play too because people play like vags deep and will muck their overpairs/tptk because one pair isn't worth 200bbs!

Also, on the slim chance we're behind seeing a turn can only help us.

I think you gotta call, but his preflop ranges and tendencies really matter on how you are going to precede. There are a ton of different postflop styles and handranges that fall under tag. If he's really tight I would consider a muck. If he goes crazy with draws, I think you call and get it in on blank turn or go allin now.

I like calling and betting or raising any turn card if opp is very aggressive (and in particular fires a lot of 2nd barrels). If OP is more passive, but still liberal, then I just 3-bet here.

call the flop unless he is sort of spewy, in which case 3 bet. Felt most turns. What are people doing when a heart peels off, and he bets $250?
