I generally c/r it, but no complaints about your line.

Although against a 46/30, you can probably threebet that turn. Youve got top pair top kicker -- he might have paired his kicker, but even if so you have outs to the flush, trips, and higher two pair to back it.

I rescind my previous post, and say threebet the turn. Itll play differently from there, but I think you should keep pounding.

I'm glad you said this. This is a free showdown raise on the turn far too often not to 3bet the turn.

I have a question about this hand. I know nothing about limit so please be eay on me. The question is this - why would you not 3-bet the turn if you're going to 3bet the river? The king falling on the river doesn't seem to improve your hand much against his range. You're either still ahead or behind here and I'd say 80% ahead. Plus you have an assload of outs to 3bet the turn.

This is about what I was thinking. the K improves your hand against all 2 pair hands, so a river bet is called for. However- as played, I just bet/call the river.
That being said, I also 3 bet the turn. TPTK and the nut draw is incredibly strong vs this guys turn range, but river raises typically mean business. You don't mind facing a turn cap, but if he caps your river 3 bet, you might puke in your mouth a bit.
Hope that made sense... I am a bit tired.

Good Luck.
To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

I agree with demi's line, but check/raising the river if capped on the turn.

How often are free showdown raises used in 10/20 up?
