Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6975724, member: 397965"] Preflop Your 3-bet is a bit large, but I dont mind this in a 2NL game, when someone has also limped in front of the raiser. People are generally going to call to much, so you should not have a lot of light 3-bets anyways. Flop I dont think, your small C-bet is a mistake, but personally I would check back this flop. You have a gutshot with two overs, which on paper is a quite strong draw, but you have several things going against you here. One factor is, its a 2-tone board, and you dont have any of the suits on the board. I would rather bet here with AcKh or AhKh than your particular hand, because those hands have more equity and play better on later streets. The other problem is, this board hit his range very hard in a 3-bet pot, so I dont think, you get many folds, and you might get check-raised and face a tough decision already. Finally your overcard outs are only partial outs, since for instance Kc, which actually came, could easily give him two pair, a straight or a flush. Turn As Station_Master say, its a significant mistake to bet this turn card. In general there are two reasons to bet the turn. One is to make the opponent fold AKA bluffing, and your hand is clearly to strong for that. The other reason for betting is, that your hand is strong enough to bet both turn and river for value. If the river is a brick, and you can still not bet for value, then you should almost always check back turn for pot control and to keep his range wider. Another way to think about it, is, if you will have a clear decision, if you get raised. And here the answer is no. We dont want to fold top pair top kicker, and we also dont want to call it off, because we are typically in poor shape and sometimes drawing dead with 3 cards to both a flush and straight on the board. And when we dont like either option, if we get raised, then we should typically not bet and reopen the betting for the opponent. This is called hand planning and is explained in this video: [MEDIA=youtube]HwhDuANhckg:41[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
