Villain was 19/13 and had been seen making a few weird (or possbly donkish) plays.

After the flop call, I figured AA/KK/AQ/JJ/TT (he really seemed like the type of player who would love to trap with the overpair). Turn check didn't change my mind but now i'm thinking how best to get the money in. If he has AA/KK I'm getting his money regardless how I play, if he has JJ/TT the only way to get money from him is to check turn, bet river, and as for AQ, I'm not sure the best way to get his money there, but he'd likely play it for a bet/call on the river.

Good line?

P.S. Does giving him a free card need to come into consideration?

Bet more on the flop, shove the turn.

mmmmmk I'll do that in future. But i'm wondering why everyone says to bet more on flop? 2/3 is about my usual.

flop bet size is fine. its a 3bet pot, we dont need to be betting as large a percentage of the pot in most of them

Yeah I agree with wufwugy that the flop bet sizing is fine. As for the turn, if he was calling $20 to win $50 then he'll probably call $45 to win $110 or whatever it is on the turn after your bet, so I don't really see any need to check behind on the turn.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
