so say you decide to make a loose call in a 3bet situation once in a while and you choose a hand like A9s to do it with againt someone who you think has a very wide range.

you get this flop and he raptor bets it, IF you decide that this hand is useful because you can a) hit a nice hand like A9x or a good draw, or a board texture you can fluff at... what do you think is the best way to make a play here.

opp is 44/30 over 90 hands, AF 2.7


$2/$4 No Limit Holdem
5 players

CO KlaasGynhjalter ($433.00)
BTN Hero ($364.00)
SB itsafold ($218.90)
BB kungemil ($435.00)

Pre-flop: ($6, 5 players) Hero is BTN
2 folds, Hero raises to $12, 1 fold, kungemil raises to $36, Hero calls $24

Flop: ($74, 2 players)
kungemil bets $24, Hero raises to $78, kungemil raises to $399

Final Pot: $551

elipsesjeff is an unknown quantity at this point
 I'd just fold this flop on this one as you're repping a small range. Villain is a maniac why do you want to bluff with 0% equity?

I would 3bet Axs (X is lower than 10) but I generally wouldn't call a 3bet with it.

If I was going to make a play on this board I would call flop and raise most turns or bet them if checked to. (I would like 1 club on the flop though so there's at least the possibility of turning some outs.)
Currently thinking of a new quote/signature... Some sort of prayer to the Poker gods for enlightment etc..

yea i think i agree with flatting here IF we want to try and make a play at it, and I also agree that I would slightly lean more towards trying to make a play here IF we had the backdoor NFD with one club on flop.

If we had a hand like AQ or KQs here, we would undoubtedly just flat as well.

What range are you flatting here if you don't have a Q? JJ/1010/99 etc?
