i experimented a curious line with AK

UTG is 33/20/3 over 150 hands and i noticed that he bluffs way too much. That's why i tried this call flop / CR turn. What do you think of this line ?

I've done that before but my standard line is 3 bet the flop and lead the turn.

Painfully standard.

ok if it's standard, it's prolly not an awfull line. That's what i wanted to know, thx.

Player dependent. If he's aggro, better 3bet the flop, because he'll be more likely to fold to the turn c/r.

A loose-passive will call you down from the turn c/r, so you'll often get an extra SB that way.

Looks good.

If he's passive, it's better to 3bet and lead. He'll be more likely to check the turn.

Varrgasss · #9 06-16-2007, 12:23 PM

yeah, the problem is that he may raise the flop for a free card too. In this case, call flop / check turn is terrible...

I'm not really sure how this qualifies as "curious". In point of fact, if your Villan really "bluffs way too much", you may have lost a BB by not waiting to c/r the river.
