    if he folds a ten often enough then yeah, but he never folds a queen and youre line looks weak unless you play AA etc this way a lot (i.e checking behind on the flop)

    I think this is terrible. Your hand is face-up imo and I'd be tempted to call with any pair. When you 3-bet pre-flop, you should c-bet 95% of the time. After you check behind a drawy flop there's no way he puts you on AA/KK/AQ. Even moreso when you flat call the turn.

    miff: I don't know what you're talking about, no one's ever folding a T here.

    This guy called or raised like 60% of cbets and i didnt feel like the flop texture was very good for a cbet here.

    That should really be included in the OP.

    Why do you think the flop texture is poor when you're repping QQ+, AK/AQ? Because he might call with a Q, T or spade draw? All those hands have gotten a lot better by the river.

    When you 3-bet preflop you rep a small, strong range, and there's only one hand in that that range that wouldn't bet this flop and would flat-call a small turn bet. That's why your hand's face-up.
