    Default 3-betting A5s from SB 3-handed

    This guy is 26/17/3 over a bunch of hands, mostly mined. No real reads on him, his blind stealing % is 38, which is high.

    Always c-bet here? Plan for turn?

    Full Tilt Poker
    No Limit Holdem Ring game
    Blinds: $2/$4
    3 players
    Converter

    Stack sizes:
    Button: $400
    Hero: $423.30
    BB: $394

    Pre-flop: (3 players) Hero is SB with A 5
    Button raises to $14, Hero raises to $48, BB folds, Button calls.

    Flop: J Q A ($100, 2 players)
    Hero bets $70, Button calls.

    Turn: T ($240, 2 players)

    No hindsight for the blind.
    I don't really like to cbet these boards as there aren't alot of hands he can call with that are behind, and there are a ton of turn cards that put us in an awkward situation. On another note, I've also been experimenting with smaller bets in 3bet pots, allowing for more freedom on turn/river.

    As played I think I check turn and shove the river sometimes when he checks behind.

    I auto c-bet way too much after 3-betting pre-flop. Are you c/c'ing c/f'ing or c/r'ing to a $75 bet here? All seem like viable options...

    i c/c, c/f this flop sometimes and bet/ c/f turn others but i think ur optimal line here is c/c c/f.

    ur 3bet pf is fine if slightly marginal, i would definitely have a plan on how to play the rest of this hand tho if u dont know how to get max value on an ace in this situation...
    I got more flava than fruitstripe gum
