What now?

PiAnOpLaYa

Had no real reads on this player he had been opening quite.

I'd 3 bet him twice both times he called and I took it down with a c-bet.

Didnt 3 bet pre as I'd just closed down all tbles, thought i'd clicked stand on this table and this was going to be my last hand. Didnt want to get involved in a 3bet pot OOP (was happy with my 3BI profit) vs a villian who was 90% to call my 3bet anyway.

denty is stacking w/ AQ here too but thats about all your beating.
don't mind if you shoved, but folding would prob be better longterm.

If your going to flat preflop i like just a flat call on the flop, if you raise and planning on folding to re raise your turning top pair top kicker into 73 off suit. Deffo should 3 bet pre though seen as though your OOP.

As played im settin him in now , nh

Better to 3bet but once you call I would play it slow and check call all the way as it allows him to think AQ/A10 is good.

i would of flat called on flop y raise it if u have no plan if he reraises u back u should have a plan on what u are going to do but as played i would go all in

I thought i had the best hand and was happy to take the pot down

Dudeskin8

If you raise it's for value or bluff, saying you want to take it down means it was a bluff as you don't want call and I don't think that's great with your hand.

So as played.

What do you think would have been the best thing to do post flop?

Dudeskin8

What I wrote eariler, just let him keep barreling at you and just call with a VERY underrepped hand that he can't EVER put you on realistically.

Arent I just giving him the chance to hit his 2nd pair?

Dudeskin8

If he hits his 2nd pair you say well done he hits it very rarely.

You should only raise flop as bluff or to get it in so whats the problem.

If he turns up with AJ/set then hard cheese.

He turns up with AQ enough of the time me finks to make ez money

you could check down and raise river for value i guess, under rep hand )
