I like 3betting pre and flatting the flop. We don't have much of a bluff-range on this board and sets are fairly unlikely to bet/3b all-in

i prob fold pre, im a nit though, do occassionally 3bet, rarely peel.
Agree. Tend to play value hands mainly early on. Pretty splashy imo.
Can find a fold after he 3-bets after donking the flop. Harrington-bot here though.

I would peel a lot, 3bet fairly often and not fold too much.

This is one of the leaks I'm trying to plug in my game. I used to peel a lot in these situations but will mostly fold pre now in similar situations. Not sure it's the correct play in the long term but I find myself in pasty post flop situations and either stacking off or folding - neither add chips to my stack Shocked(

i'm peeling pre here 95% of the time. i'm only folding if something on the telly distracts me or my computer spontaneously breaks. 3b rarely, more likely to 3b if the OR was opening a lot or later position. postflop i'd prob go bust too tbh, but would feel ok about it as you get it in vs someone with Ah or set so often it makes up for the times u see the better flush

what people honestly suggesting folding the flop?

1,000,000 - 1 people ever actually fold this.

I'd fold. I think we are beat virtually every time. Bad price for a two outter.

for a fact you will see as bad as AT no hearts here sometimes, even in a $162. will definitely see sets and worse flushes and a nut flush draw enough to make this profitable.

When I'm multi tabling and putting less effort into the smaller stuff, I would get it in without even thinking about it and chalk it up to a cooler if I'm losing. Willrobrobu is right, people are happy to knock it in with some pretty poor holdings. Given this is the big 162 which still has good value, I would sharkscope the guy before doing anything on the flop.

If he's any kind of big volume player or winner I'm just gonna peel the flop. Keep calling down the streets and if they check, then bet yourself. You're getting little action from worse hands this deep vs anyone decent.

What worse flushes? I very rarely see people lead/get in sets for over 100 bigs. I mean its pretty player dependent but to say people never fold this is very wrong. Worse flushes consist of 56hh? 64hh? 54hh? 2nd level I don't think anyone but the top tier fish get it in with AT no heart, maybe JJ or something. Fish like to call and make good hands/see what you have, not lump it in dead. When we need the guy to be making a horrific mistake to put it in, folding really cannot be bad.

I'd have peeled the flop donk so I don't have to fold just yet tho.

Thank you for all the replies.

Mixed opinions about the pre-flop call and I can see why. Although that we are deep and out hand can flop some strong hands and draws, I'm not sure now about how much I am really going to make here in the long run.

On the flop I definitely think a call is in order, I guess I raised to get value against pairs, two pairs, sets and draws, and although I will often get value I do open myself up to being up against a better flush or monster draws/sets.

If I decide to raise I think I should be getting away once a ton goes in here against an unknown in my highest buy in tournament.
