Hi,

It seemed to be 'Let's-raise-Ghartman's-Trips-on-the-River' Day, today! Opponent was your standard, no imagination TAG. No real history with him, we kind of stay out of each others way.

Pre-flop I can and usually would 3Bet this hand but I sometimes just flat Ax pre because BTN's love to barrel ace high boards never expecting me to have one in this spot. Looking back, a lead out on the flop looks nice but I checked to the initial raiser.

No flop action and the turn wasn't great but I'm guessing that a flush draw would have bet the flop so I'm pretty sure I've got the best hand. 2 callers and I lead the river again for a standard size. I get raised but this time he's raising into 2 of us. Also, as before, my hand is pretty under-repped so it could look like I'm trying to steal the pot. I tanked for so long, clicked time-bank and eventually folded. What do you guys think? Nice hand or not? Let me know.

Thanks

Hi.

Preflop: I would just fold this. I would defend this in the BB, but not in the SB where it's a pretty easy fold IMO (or at least 3bet it if you want to play it, but only vs someone who folds >70% to 3bets).

PostFlop: Rest of the hand is played fine, I think BB's range can contain many strong hands as he would often check to BU and allow him to make a cbet and he can have 44/AQ/X:sX:s. He doesn't rep other stuff like AK/AA/KK though but I doubt he's bluffing.
