Opp is 21/19 straight forward type reg. I threebet him the last hand and haven't been too active so i suspect that he doesn't think i'm threebetting light. But who knows, he could think im tilting or something.
When he calls the flop tbh I pretty much am going to three barrel any hand as long as a club doesnt come but I have a flush so its not about FE. When he calls the flop I'm a little stunned because I'm pretty sure at this point he has either AcT-AcK, QcQ, and sometimes an A high flush or other flushes.
I think my turn bet size was bad, river bet was about pot. I was talking to Fnord and he thinks a big leak in my game is pot control with my bet sizing and I'd like to improve that.

Yeah, bet more on the turn to make your river push 3/4 pot-ish. Even $250 works.
I like the slightly bigger 3bet pre with 200bb stacks, but I think I remember you saying you don't do that... you just widen your range to take away implieds. Or am I thinking of someone else? |

Turn bet is way to small imo. I would bet a minimum $275 as I want him to call a river push which is no more than 3/4 pot. You should make him believe that the river push was out of desperation and your only way to win this pot. Pump your fist when he calls. |

i don't think so.
I think any decent player is going to own you with position and these stacks. |

i dont like the size of the 3 bet
you know the answer to your question, you should have bet more on turn, like at least 250 |

Fair enough. I was basically remembering a Cardrunners tutor who said that you shouldn't only use your good hands for 3-betting a regular out of the blinds but to mix it sometimes with trash hands as well. I personally wouldn't do it with 63s though.
Isn't 3-betting 3.5-4x the raise OOP with deep stacks standard? |

so you think we are making money in a vacuum by 3betting this preflop, when considering that he's going to call us with a wide range and position? |

I'd like to recant the statement that this guy is going to call a lot of hands pre, he hasn't been calling threebets light at all.
So what's the threebet? 66? 72? |

Does everyone agree with the AK, AJ, QQ assesment of likely range?
Because if so I don't like a river check. |

| From another perspective this is ok because from his point of view, your smallish bet on the turn probably means your range is more weighted towards a draw (assuming he hasnt got the Ac) and your river push is a missed draw. |

I think people have gotten past this level, which is why i didnt like this line, but that was my reasoning at the time. Kind of like "Well i'll make a small bet on the turn and if he doesn't shove he can't have anything good so ill shove bluff him!" |
