    Default Thoughts on this triple barrel?

    My image today is probably of a solid tag, I'm running between 20/17 and 21/18 for the day. Villain is an unknown, but I assume not a complete fish from the few hands I have witnessed. I think we could generalize this spot to lots of different situations. The most obvious mistake is that my turn bet should have been slightly bigger but thats relatively minor one. thoughts?

    Hero ($975)

    Since you have no history i think it's probably good, but obviously i don't think you're doing this versus someone you have history with.

    this makes 0 sense to me. Having a read that he is capable of folding 33-88/TT/A9/k9 etc. is crucial

    the point is that they have no reads on you. they dont want to tangle with an unknown player. They get 1000 hands on you, find out you a big loose donkey fish and you make that play then your going to be called with a wider range of hands than the ones that call you when they have nothing on you
