"1 fold", MP raises to $3, "1 fold", BTN calls $3, "1 fold", Hero calls $2

*Flop:* ($9.50) 3c Js 4s (3 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $8, BTN calls $8, Hero calls $8

*Turn:* ($33.50) Qh (3 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $22, BTN folds, Hero raises to $89 all in, MP calls $67 all in

I'd C/R the flop personally, a useful blocker, NFD and the backdoor wrap its a great c/r spot at these stakes because people tend to underplay made hands and overplay draws and you can get hands with bad equity continuing against you. Also we have plenty of FE here imo with a Cbet and a peel.

As you played it I think the turn is closer to a call than a jam as the MP looks well strong now it doesn't seem like he is ever going to fold to a jam but we have plenty enough equity (someof it disguised nicely as well) to just c/c and then pot when we hit / c-f when we don't.

With reads/info on the MP turn Cbet habbits then I'd be happy to jam vs someone with a very high turn Cbet but the Q kinda smashes his range somewhat and it defo looks like you have very little FE here OTT.

Is this close to be a fold pre? Maybe a bit nitty, but with position etc?

Also fold if its just you and OR in the pot?

I call pre with a nut suit.

I raise flop.

I just call the turn now because he's bet/calling like always here and we're still a dog to QJ/JJ/QQ etc (which i expect him to have). We can play perfectly on rivers too. Save money when we miss and get paid often when we ship 9's, Aces etc.

HU would depend a lot on the oppo you could 3bet, as the action goes pre-flop i'd never fold

i would prolly nit fold it pre but I struggle playing pots from SB so I've started being a nit.

flop I'd c-r, calling the turn seems ok but I think jamming is also grand if you think you can't get the money in if you hit and fancy a gambol.

I agree with Cos about his OTT range, so I don't know how we're gonna get it in on spade rivers and his range prolly contains blockers to our broadway as well.

Like the call pre.

Always donking this flop though then jamming if raised. If we get two folds then no worries, free cash.

I think taking the c/r line gets more free cash sometimes (as well as enabling us to potentially see a free turn), but it also enables villain with a made hand to flat and play perfectly vs us on any non spade turn, as regs have spades so much of the time with this line.

At least if he calls the donk and a spade hits we can still get paiiiiiid when we barrel off.

Just my opinion. Ta

i would call pre. and check raise flop.

as played, i disagree with other posters - i would check raise turn - true villain looks strong betting into 2 players but you have ridiculous amounts of outs and some fold equity

oh actually leading the flop is very standard here multi way.
