AJ in a 3bet pot (help me not frig up this river)

[nextgenneo]

Guy is 20/17/3 and one of the better players on the site. I've been running at about 21/19/5. Only "read" on the player is that he 3bets very big.

I would bet/call like $160.

A bet is FAR superior to a check on the river.

agreed, but surely bet/calling is bad (notice 150bb deep)

What would he raise the river with besides a bluff that doesn't bet the turn?

[ipokeder]

bet/call is solid

Don't think you can bet/fold $144. It screams mediocreness.

Nextgenno,

When I said bet was far better then check, it was with the intentions of calling any raise up to my stack here.

Put it this way. If you are considering b/f'ng the river, then why were you going for a c/r on the this turn?

i like bet/call, but i'd be tempted to make it quite small ~$130 to rep a blocking bet and induce a shove
