    Default What would your plan be for this hand

    All,
    I am working on improving my ability to plan a hand and want to get everyone's thoughts on the below situation and how you might handle a few scenario's with this hand.


    In this hand villain was 38/20/6.0 through 50 hands with a 100% Cbet and 67% FxFCB. We have not seen villain do anything tricky or spewy.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (6 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    UTG ($56)
    MP ($264)
    Hero (CO) ($167.40)
    Button ($214.05)
    SB ($113.55)
    BB ($139.65)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with A, K
    1 fold, MP raises to $3, Hero raises to $9, 3 folds, MP calls $6

    Flop: ($19.50) 9, 4, 3 (2 players)
    MP checks, Hero ???

    Do you lead out here and, if so what is your plan in the following situations:

    a) Villain c/r's to $40 your $10 flop bet
    b) Villain flats your $10 bet then leads out for $40 on a blank (non Spade, non A, and non K)
    c) Villain flats your $10 bet and checks on a blank turn
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

    What are villains fold to 3bet numbers? 4bet %?
    That would help me formulate a plan this deep. Why aren't we 3bettng bigger since we're deep vs most of the table?
    Playing live . . . thanks alot Bin Laden.

    3bet to $10 pre.

    a) shove over his 3bet and get it in
    b) if you have odds to call for your floosh, call. if not, fold.
    c) double barrel some, check behind some. if hes bad like his stats suggest, he's calling w/ worse hands along with some TP/PP hands that you still have pretty good equity against. Very player dependent though.
    eeevees are not monies yet...they are like baby monies.

    villain's fold to 3bet and fold to 4bet are both 0% (one instance each)

    Probably should bet the flop.

    a) If I bet the flop and he check-raises, I raise more.

    b) call if the odds are close not if its a big bet, id prolly just fold.

    c) I check behind

    flattin ur 4bets, makin u tilt
    give us some bet sizes. the scenarios are not very solvable if you dont give us an idea of your cbet size, opps c/r size and lead size
    My bankroll is the amount of money I would spend or lose before I got a job. It is calculated by adding my net worth to whatever I can borrow.

    OK, I edited the original post with some figures. I probably made hero's flop bet too small, so if you would have bet bigger assume villains next bets are both PSB's.
