and?

just looking for better/alternate lines. Does anyone play it differently? Should i ahve led/raised turn? lead/raise flop?

[STIdrivr]

Does he really have a better hand than you? It looks like he is slow playing something, maybe a flush. Its obvious he really likes his hand, did he really catch his K J or KK boat and slow play or is he scared of the flush with trip J's? I think you should try to get all your money in here either way so u got what u wanted, I think there are many ways to play this hand. Im always trying to switch it up so I would play this multiple ways depending on opponent.

Bet the flop, bet the turn.

Bet the flop, bet the turn.

On the flop I would typically lead OOP, but I dont really like leading this board into the PFRer with a hand as strong as ours. I like a check/call on this flop. On the turn Im not all that sure really, I may go for a check raise, but I dont have a ton of input on that street. On the river I think you need to bed, but Id make it atleast half pot, probably closer to $12 though and try to get it in however possible.

I'd bet the turn and the flop.

checkcall flop bet turn

edit:

bet flop bet turn. Even though the flop is paired, a lot of hands hit it even still.

There are a lot of ways we can play it, but I really don't like c/c flop, check turn. I like betting this turn one way or another the large majority of the time, whether it be after leading, c/ring or c/cing. I think playing it like we did just lets villain off the hook so easy the times that he didn't hit this board hard.

Get it in by the turn;if he has the better boat you tip your hat and pay him off with confidence.
