unless you want to get it in, which is obv not the case since you think he has a set, 3betting the flop is bad. worse rarely calls, better rarely folds blah blah

In which case, what value is there in calling and donking turn when its likely to cost the same amount and you will end up even more ignorant as to where you're at?

You can't put him on a set here. He's playing loose and reasonably aggro. I think we're reasonably close to his range as I'd expect him to raise this with any K, 2p, set, maybe straight draw.

If he calls a raise and bets the turn we can assume we're behind whereas if we donk the turn and he flat calls we're left having given him the grace of drawing two more cards and giving us a spewey decision on the river.

Not saying you're wrong but I just don't really like this line OOP against an opponent with LAG stats at uSNL.

I've changed my mind. 3betting and checking the turn is probably a pretty poor line. I think calling and donking a reasonable turn shows more strength and is potentially cheaper and more value.

Leaky me.

Cheers guys.

call to keep pot small.
many marginal uNLers slowplay sets. Kx or 2pr or AA is much more likley imo
