    Default AK 3bet pot monotone board

    Villain is 20/15/4.2 AF. Fold to 3b 29%. ATS 28. Raise flop cb ip 17%. 380 hands.



    MP: $20.40
    CO: $75.15
    BTN: $81.20
    SB: $48.75
    Hero (BB): $50.35
    UTG: $53.02

    Pre Flop: ($0.75) Hero is BB with K A
    2 folds, CO raises to $1.75, 2 folds, Hero raises to $5.50, CO calls $3.75

    Flop: ($11.25) K T 6 (2 players)
    Hero bets $5.50, CO raises to $17, [color=red]Hero ???

    Really didn't know what to make of this? His range has to be pretty wide given his fold to cbet percentage?

    Any insight would be appreciated.

    wow this doesn't seem like an ship at all to me. Sidenote : I think this is a good board to c/raise because from my experience ppl often stab at monotone boards in rr pots and he can 4-bet a draw over your c/raise or put you on something like AdQ and get it in with worse made hands. As played, I think you could call and ship it in on a good turn but I don't think folding is that terrible tbh. I think his raising range on this flop is pretty polarized (garbage vs big draws/sets/flushes that he's never folding) so it seems like a good spot to increase your equity by getting it in a good turn and folding a bad one.
    Family Cruise IMO

    Thanks for the insight guys. I posted this hand coz I don't recall being in a similar situation recently and wanted to know what sort of lines would be optimal. In 3b pots generally im happy playing for stacks with this sorta hand, but the board texture was so weird i thought there might be other ways to play it. I think shoving and peeling for a safe turn card are both alright. In this case i shoved and got shown a flush, 97d. Its a semi cooler i think, but im not too bothered by the results was more curious about the thought process.

    Vi-Zeroskill: I made it half pot coz its sorta my standard bet in 3b pots. In this spot i thought about making it more, but i wanted to keep the weaker part of his range in like qj, aj, aq sorta stuff. Maybe even JJ or QQ. By making it bigger i think my hand looks like what it is and it makes it easier for him to play against me ip with a weaker range. Like he could float randoms and take a shot at like a q or a j or a diamond.

    What would we do against a guy with similar stats but a normal fold to 3b % here. Like 50-60%?
