What do you guys think?

[MrEngenic]

I woud power through with flop 3bet and turn bet if BB could fold a low pocket, an 8 or a 3. Chances are he has a worse draw too.

If I was BB I would bet/fold the river often enough to make this raise good against me.

[TheWunderkind]

Away from the table it looks decent but in the heat of the battle no one folds his T here and theres not much worse hands he can have I think. It also depens on how he plays, does he often bluff scarecards or raise a lone A here?

[Keepitsimple]

so you rep an ace/bluff. seems like most pairs will b/c. bluffing the ace has become too popular imo.

Totally agree, nothing he can have at this point folds IMO

Eh...guess he could have J9...but I really dont think hes betting that river.

Who was it?

[Raist0000]

I like it versus a TAG who is trying to play well (and it's not a showdown monkey)

But I'm usually 3-betting that flop.

[MAxx]

TAG dependent. Is beautiful vs some, but clearly not right vs some of the showdown monkeys in this thread.

[gehrig]

calling is better than raising

[MAxx]

perhaps in most cases, but obviously not when he would fold a better hand...which some would
