AQ makes a full house on the turn ($27)

    Default AQ makes a full house on the turn ($27)

    Opp's stats were 22/14/0.8, no player notes. What's the best way to extract value with this hand? Call and hope that he bets again or raise to try to get more money in the pot?

    Position RULES! I flat here as I think that's the best way to get a bet from him on the river (which you can shove over).

    I think he may call a small turn raise but I think he shuts down on the river. Whereas on the river if you flat there's 730 in the pot. And he may feel obliged to bet and not bet weak!
    This is not my signature. I just write this at the bottom of every post.

    I agree. If BB has a hand worth stacking off with, we'll be able to do that on the river. If BB has a huge draw and was floating (say KsJs), we might miss some value by not shoving over here, but then again we gain a ton of value when they hit and stack off every time. If BB is bluffing, the only chance for us to get more value is to call here.

    So I say flat here. If BB bets river, shove over. If BB checks river, bet like 2/3 pot or so.

    if he has a Q it doesn't matter what you do, take the line that makes the most from an A or a bluff.

    Definitely flat. If there were two flush draws maybe a small raise to "protect" our hand...

    yeh i doubt i could riase here considering we gots the second nuts + position+ his firing and AA would've been played much stronger pre flop.

    But if we do raise is it a pot on min riase bet? which is worse!!!?
