25NL - KK in 3bet flop, turn decision.

Results 1 to 7 of 7
  1. #1

    Default 25NL - KK in 3bet flop, turn decision.

    Villain is 28/21/1 - I havnt seen him in a 3bet pot before and I have about 90 hands on him. What do I do on the turn? Any reasonable bet from me leaves me completely commited so surely has to be a shove or check? Bet flop larger? Check flop because he's so passive? No idea. Thanks guys.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    UTG ($21.45)
    MP ($28.15)
    CO ($45.05)
    Hero ($24.80)
    SB ($50.85)
    BB ($33.90)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with K, K.
    1 fold, MP raises to $1, 1 fold, Hero raises to $3.5, 2 folds, MP calls $2.50.

    Flop: ($7.35) T, T, J (2 players)
    MP checks, Hero bets $5.5, MP calls $5.50.

    Turn: ($18.35) 8 (2 players)
    MP checks, HERO?????

    I bet flop larger probably pot size and push turn. My post flop play does need work in these types of hands.

    Let us think about a range I think it can be pretty large with him running 21pfr and calling your 3bet. AA will 4bet you here most likely. So that leaves us with most likely AT+ probably any pocket pair, I think a mid pocket pair may float flop to pop the turn but he doesn't do that.

    So I think he is either trying to trap with a hand like AT, AJ, JJ. Or on a flush draw.

    I think I would shove the turn. You can not give a flush draw a free card or good odds and any bet commits you.

    Easy push for me. I also like the flop bet as standard. If he has JJ or a T he paid the price pre-flop to draw out on me.

    They way to beat people who play passive is not to play passive as well. We want to punish them with relentless aggression. Especially when we have the nuts in a 3 bet pot, shove turn.
