I would flat. I don't think your repping nething by raising here, as he'd expect you to bet all your value range on that flop surely. c/f river if u miss too.

I;m in position mate.

id say fold>flat>raise

as in, check behind if u miss.

and if ya going to be picky, this sure is a 3bet pot as the title suggests ;)

people really think we're deep enough to flat?

btw i chose what i now think is the worst option, sigh.

i guess not. not gonna stack him if a club rolls off very often. did u raise?

Also if we have  Ac Kh what do we do?

And  Ac Qd

andddddd

 Ahrt Jh

well AJ call... AQ and AK are very similar and you could make a good case for all 3 options and could make good case for different flop actions too

can't help but smile when i read this! sorry pleno! <3

Thanks Alex, you're last 20 posts to me sure have been nice.

sorry pleno, did include a <3 sign to make sure you knew it was meant well. :(

feel bad now.

it wasnt the running bad i smiled at, i always laugh when my mates say "im quitting, never playing again" etc etc cos they've said it dozens of times before and are always at it the next day/week/hour even.

mmmmmmmmm

I really dont like the flop check. Don't reallllly see why we want any air in our range to chk flops IP in 4b pots, and I don't see any value to a delayed Cbet as pretty much all our LEGIT value range would wanna bet the flop.

I think my range to check this flop would be mostly marginal stuff like 88 and AQ, but i'd protect it by including some nut flush draw combo's and Qx's.

Our hand just has no value to do anything but bet fold the flop

I wouldn't raise this turn, I think our range overall plays far better for value if we don't really have a chk flop raise turn range on flush completing turns. I mean I might break this rule and do it with actual flushes only purely because I dont think I would actually expect my opponent at this stage of the game to expect me to chk parsley's on the flop, and the # of parsley parsley combo's we 4b pre isn't many so would be a great spot in a vacuum to raise a flush but very hard to balance unless we wanna throw some pretty un-feesible bluffs in, which will always be -EV vacuum plays.

Spose the best line is peel turn jam river, but as that is so unlikely to get through in this specific spot - I would just fold.

i enjoy and agree with that post.

So glad that "parsleys" is becoming standard when talking about clubs.

campaign to bring back 'puppy feet' will begin shortly

in

people most commonly start peeling 4bets oop with AJ and KQ in my experience. id fold. i didnt like betting the flop either.

a lot of the time he has hit a gem of a flop here with a speculative play..... hes seeing dollar signs and all the momentum shifting his way.... piss him right off and dont put in another penny

are you 4betting this hand tho?
