8NL - Checking a set of Aces on the Turn?

Lambert180

Any thoughts on my line here?

My thinking when I checked the turn, was that 3betting pre then barrelling that turn looks very strong and probably folds out alot of his weaker hands (like what he called with), and if he's got a King, I'm losing a decent sized pot anyway. So I checked to keep in the weaker part of his range.

Is this flawed thinking? Should I just bet the turn?

just keep betting for value.

what 'weaker part of his range' is there on a board like this? he's got at least a pair so if he's willing to call the flop then hes obviously gonna call a turn bet without a K imo. why are you shoving the river blank if you're not betting the turn? a check behind isn't always the green light that they've not got anything

i like your bet sizing pre, but i would personally make it £2 on the flop

grantorino

I'd bet flop bigger on that board, but sizing ok. B/c tirn

tbh i think this guy would have called no matter what he had going by how this has went. line is good but got to think if you did this against me on the turn is a great bluffing situation for the villian if you were against me and you checked i would have prob shoved on you. question is as ive passed the hard decision onto you is would you call knowing alot of the time you are beat. just think of that next time board comes like that mate. shove on the river worked but again normaly your only getting called by the king or if your lucky lower set.

imo i would just bet turn following your cbet and if he has king he would mainly raise then you know exactly where you are

@ DrRunGood - That's the whole point, it's supposed to look weak. He only has a pot sized bet after the flop, if he has the K then I'm going broke if I check, and I'm going broke if I bet so the times he has a K, the result is already decided. The only thing I have control over are the times he doesn't have a K. If he shoved the turn, then I snap call, if he's got it, so be it.
