*POST* -3barrel QXXQX with busted fd

-Against me, I called him down with midpair about 8 hands ago

60% steal 2/3 v me at this table, wide in sb too.
All I know pretty much, I played taggish but I was tilted like 28/24 something like that, only pot was the one we played.
I know he can barrel, but this board is just too drawy and I will hate my life on half the deck on turn so I just made my life easy. Do you like my play?


3bet size is to 2.30, I like that size oop v regs who might be a bit tilted

I like the raise, but what are you gonna do if he shoves now ? And what if he calls and the Turn is a scare card and he donks again ?

raise bigger on flop imo, make him decide to go with his 1pairs or not. lots of scary turns for you and him

don't really assume he is tilted or that he is a decent player, that QxxQx hand shows that he doesn't understand hand reading

Yeah I don't assume anything, it just increases the likelihood

I snapcall obviously, the turn depends on the scare card really, but I expect most people to check after calling a raie on the turn.

My size will leave ca 14 into 20 on turn, I sort of wanted to make the sizing appear that bluffs are plausible although there are not really any pure bluffs in my range, he showed that he can mindlessly bluff already, is that wrong thinking?

I think there is more value in getting him all in with his inferior 1pair hands asap than there is in trying get bluffs out of him here. there is enough behind on the turn where he might fold 88 type hands, 78, Tx on cards that don't improve him

could be off base here but on top of all that it isn't so bad if you just take it down on the flop. I almost want to suggest that you just go all-in vs his donk on the flop

also with the raise size you made, he really isn't playing super badly when he flats you with any 6+ outer and folds turns that don't improve him.. since you are jamming any turn at that point and he is only calling $4.50 to win a $48 pot on the flop

you mean like this? :D
