Hi, all!

Villain was unknown over 15 hands 21/17 or something like that but he was only 1 tabling zoom yet hiding from search so not sure if he was playing anything else. I have a pretty hand, and im IP so i decided to 3bet. I will number my questions as i have quite a few of them: :rolleyes:

1) flop raise and turn raise for value fine? its hard for me to define villains range as hes unknown ldo but i think i can get value from worse draws and pairs;

2) he has 170$ left on river, should i jam? i dont see many hands that play this way and beat me except for AK but maybe my assumptions are wrong and he plays two pair or sets like this as well which brings me to my 3rd question;

3) if you are the villain, what hands do u play like this and if you have set, two pair or good draw like QTdd,KQdd,T9dd, do u keep c/calling turn or c/jam the turn?

4) whats the worst hand u call with if he c/jams turn?

5) do you think my bet sizing on flop and turn is ok?

Sorry for loads of questions, any help at all is appreciated thanks!

ok..

1) I think flop raise is debatable, yes we have a great hand and great equity, but we are deep and he's leading 3/4 pot into us, he can have AK and JJ a lot here as well as KJ. On the turn I like to bet again for pure value vs all his draws that we have blockers to and sometimes dominate.

2) On the river I think we should just check. The benefits of betting is we can get KQ to fold, but I think he has a lot of AK/JJ and flush draws that won't call, it is probably going to be a value cut shoving on the river. I'd expect him to fold QQ and worse.

3) If I decide to not go broke on the flop with my combo draws then I think I play the turn passively with Q10dd as the aggressor is probably not bluffing often on this spot on the turn and our draws do a lot worse when only 1 card to come

4) On the turn I would b/call anything that I raised flop and bet turn for value. However if I had AK I wouldn't always raise the flop. The best hand I would fold on the turn would be something like QJ that I turned into a bluff

5) Sizing is fine, cant really go bigger/smaller anywhere
