    Default 50 nl, is this a good move on the turn?

    Could I check fold here ever? If I check call I have to call the river if I brick, no? I could be ahead here a good portion of the time, the real question is does he ever fold A9-Aj and is a made straight ever in his hand which I'm not sure if it is or not playing 3 handed.

    Now that I think of it he has to fold A9-Aj or else this move is fucking retarded because he certainly isn't calling with a worse Ace. The real question is how would you play the turn? Bet/fold? Bet/call? Check/fold?

    what do you think?

    getting my swell on
    i dont recommend 3 betting oop with Ax. the problem is with 3 betting hands like this, we always get into tough spots like this when we flop TP, or we just take down a smallish pot. this is like the archetypal situation that happens a lot with Ax oop in 3 bet pots.

    any stats or reads on villain? if we are playing your typical 50nl player, do not expect them to fold A9-AJ. the only hands you really beat here are A6 and A7.

    if you choose to bet the turn, it is a crime to fold. i think c/r is the worst option here. if we choose to felt, b/c > c/r >>>>>>b/f.

    at this level 3betting is fine but you should check flop like 95% of the time

    Yep, I'm not sure what I was thinking leading that flop.
