    Default That's what you get from 3betting 85s OOP

    Villains stats are 21/16 over a smallish sample, ATS of 25, no stats or reads on his 3betting play.

    I haven't been at the table long, but have been quite and haven't 3bet yet. So I get a trashy hand give it a go for the 3bet to get things going.

    Flop I bet, basically to fold out a bunch of hands, maybe get a call from a worse hand a see a showdown once in a while or hit my outs.
    With this flop betsizing and remaining stacks I can fold to a flop raise/shove if I think villain only has like overpairs and 8+ draws, or stack of if I think it's wider.

    Actually when I was in the hand I thought I had to stack of, so that was my plan, but after I stoved it I think I can b/f as well.

    Turn I didn't really know. A bet can fold a lot of marginal hands, otoh
    underpairs might call another street and I assume most 1 pairs hands aren't betting this turn.

    when you're called on this flop you are beat a lot of the time, however many of those hands will likely fold to a turn barrel here which is a great thing. there's VERY few hands that will raise your turn bet in which case if you're called you have some clean outs to win at the river. If you hit the river i would make a value bet rather than some sort of check/call/raise (AT/AJ type hands likely check behind etc)
