3rd time in a row I open from CO, but each time I actually had a hand (ofcourse villain doesn't know this). He calls me for the third time from the BB. He was a little bit tilted during the 3 situations.

I'm a little bit confused with my cbet. First of all it could be a lot smaller. But does anyone like a check/fold against a tilted player? Little bit confused about this hand.

Anyone?

I think you played this fine,Cbet could have been a bit smaller,it depends on how you played previous hands,but otherwise well played.

you made some assumptions he could be 20 tabling and not paying attention to anything but his cards.

I think I would check behind here if he folded 2 of 3 times hes gonna have a tight range of pocket pairs and aces and on this board hes going to think he has the best hand with his ax even if he doesint and ship it on you.

If your wrong and hes calling his bb with alot of garbage because its cheaper it hit his garbage/ connector range really hard as well

I think cbet is quite bad here, we only ever fold out worse - and his range that he can continue with he will often just ch/rai us and we have to fold the best hand sometimes.

As what to do on turn and R is quite hard - don't really like to just giveup and I will call down on some boards.

I would expect him to fire most of his range on turn so that's what makes it tough. That being said though, we have a few good clean outs, and we also have some good cards to make delayed cbets on turn. And if he checks some blank card I will put out like 1/3rd pot delayed cbet since I expect him to be ch/fold near all time then.

Ok thanks

While reviewing I didn't like my cbet at all and you're actually writing down stuff I thought off. Thanks for the confirmation again!
