    Turn looks weird.
    would he go for a check raise with AA, KK
    To me it seems like you put him on AK/AQ or JJ
    and fired the turn because he would fold that part of his range.
    The c/r looks like he may have u beat.

    Im opedipus bitch, the original balla.
    I 4bet/call preflop.

    As for how it's played, I'm kinda confused. Betting the turn seems kinda bad, as I don't expect him to fold Tx+ all that often (if he's 3betting that wide and knows your capable of playing back). I'd be tempted to check back the turn, as you are ahead of a good portion of his range {Ax, KJ, QJ, type hands}. So yeah, I think I check back the turn. It pot controls, plus you get a free card, and it keeps in the portion of his range you still beat.

    But I play bad in 3bet pots.

    2 Follow-Up Questions:

    1.) What is the consensus on the Flop, is it a clear call or do we fold to villain's c-bet?

    2.) Assuming we called flop and villain leads out with another 2/3 pot bet ($12 say), what is our plan?

    Thanks!!
