light flop raising question

    Default light flop raising question

    So here's a hypothetical situation.

    We have a lagg image, we have been c/r the flop very light versus our tagg fish opponent, who is so convinced they can beat us by just playing tight that they are still not calling the flop very light, and anytime they threebet. it's obviously a bluff.

    So taggfish opp is 20/15 and raises on the CO. we call on the BU with Ah6h.
    Flop comes 9x9x5h, opp makes standard cont bet we raise 3x it and he calls.

    What turn cards are we going to want to follow through on if any.

    Lets say opp is a tagg who's willing to float oop or call very light on the flop, how is the answer different?

    For what it's worth, I like to mix-up folding, raising and calling in these spots. Against most TAggs, I'm done after he calls the flop raise. Against softer players, I'm committing to a continuation bet on the turn unless an Ace hits.

    I do this quite regularly and i seem to get into some marginal situations is bloated pots because of it. I guess i should cut that out.

    What about an Ace on the turn?

    Probably better to check behind the turn and bet when checked to on the river since we don't have two streets of value.

    even when we are likely behind to a small to medium pp? Dont we want to double barrell here often since we have FE?
