guess i'd 3 bet flop, i hate minraises... he might have some weak pocket pair of flush draw


Dunno about the 3-bet, if he calls then I'm screwed because pot is too big for rop pair and I'm obligated to go all-in (which I don't want to do with this hand). Usually those min raises show strength because people at partypoker tend to slowplay a lot.


What heck are those minbets nowadays. I mean what is his goal with those bets. Protecting against a flush draw? Building a pot for if his flushdraw hits? Scaring u away? Faking weakness?
Really dont know but 3bet the flop I would not do scares away second best hands and u get called only by hands that got u beat.

What did he have? So we can think about what his goal was with the min-bets.


He held AA...


I would play the same way like you. If you reraise on flop only worse hand is calling you.
Sometimes they bluff with mini raise so just let him bluff if he has air.

Oke then that were "HUGE" value bets.
U played it fine.


what a retard, he managed to get the minimum value out of you

as played I would still probably raise(smallish)/fold the river, to get value from worse kings, possibly a PP


I´m tempted to play c/r turn, since I might be often ahead, but calling down is also fine.
