I dont think hed raise £3 to £10 with a set so i rekon hes semi bluffin with a flush draw or protecting a hand like the hands black fish stated
I really dont like the call after he re raised u on the flop, i personally think you should have re raised or put him allin since he only had jus over 40 quid behind after he re raised u.
Plus u havto kno the player well to do this, would he play his sets strong if so u need to think of excuses to fold and find a better spot later on in the game.
Jam the flop. If he has AA or a set then fair enough.
you should ask scotty77 about cragieboy lol..
anyway, his raise is more than pot size on the flop, he was in the BB so you can't rule out 78spades or off, which he would be likely to raise to protect his hand.. I think sets/overpairs would also raise there too its a draw heavy board.
Generally if he check raises flop then bets turn hes got something big and we could probably rule a flush draw out now since the villain in this case rarely bluffs..
Turn is the decider once you called it your commited to calling off the river too, once you build up reads though this type of thing won't be too much of a problem.
Not easy. It smells of a set, it's quite gettoffable on the Turn, but I may do the lot on the end if the guy has been getting out of line a bit earlier on.
The geezer played it nice & cute, exactly the way he should have against aggro Dohhhhhhh.
I much respect the Posts that Zing has made on this thread - spot on.
I would generally fold the turn. If he's not and does this on draws i shove the turn.
I think the call is worst option on the turn, because if he misses draw on the riv he is unlikely to shove riv, cause he cant get u off anything with those stack sizes. If he hits your money goes in. So to get value from draw holdings u need to shove turn.
How u played it you have to call the river due to odds. Its not a great card cause hands like 67ss make it, but its better than a spade. So in conclusion fold or shove turn. I say fold turn.

It all boils down to what we know about our oppo.
Will he slowplay big pp out of position? is he aware of being out of position? how often does he defend his big blind? how does he usually play pocket pairs pre flop? does he play draws aggressively or check call?
I admit that if your up against a player who balances his ranges very well then all this info could be hard to get, but how he usually plays his draws is the most important imo.
The check raise on the flop is either a set or a big draw imo. i like the call on the flop, as a shove may fold out any bluffs or weak draws, and if a spade hits you can just fold and let him have it.
On the turn is where you have to make a decision. from his bet he is going with his hand i feel, but you need to decide if he is drawing or has a made hand, because if you call and the danger cards miss, he may shut down and you dont get the lot. its a shove or fold turn, and although the oppo turned up with AA, without any info, i never put this hand in his range, along with QQ or JJ as they could be super tricky to play out of position against a LAG!
