Hi!

This was my last hand for the evening. I don't have pokertracker right now so no fancy HH, sorry. But i thougt the hand was kind of intresting so here goes.

I have QQ in MP1. UTG raises and i 3-bet. Everyone else folds and villan calls. Flop comes AKQ rainbow. Villian checks. I bet, almost expecting a check-raise if he didn't have pocket Jacks pre-flop. He chack-raises and I 3-bet.

So, was this the right or the wrong move? I have no speciel read on the player, semi-lose passive maybe, but not sure.

Keep hitting the raise button until bet-3bets you on 4th street. Then you can slow down unless you fill up.

Yeah, thats fine, you can almost get fancy and go for the raise on the turn with your set after he checkraises you.

You are heads up with a set. Pump it. Be a little careful if a J or T falls, but also remember that if a J or T falls on the turn, you have 9 or 10 outs to win and 2 or 3 to tie if behind to a straight.

I'm raising on the turn, but I might get there in one of two ways.

If I think that I can raise the flop and get threebet by the guy who flopped two pair and wants to charge me while he's "ahead", I'll do that. Then I'll call the threebet, thank him for telling me his hand, and pop the turn.

If I dont think he'll 3bet me after I raise the flop, then I won't raise the flop and will just pop the turn. If a J or T comes out I think I just have to call down. Maybe pop the river one, but theres no way I can fold to a re-raise, so it doesn't gain me a whole lot.
<Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.
