Flop: Q♠ T♦ 2♥ (10.48SB, 3 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets, Button raises, UTG folds, Hero 3-bets, Button calls.

Turn: 8♦ (8.24BB, 2 players)
Hero bets, Button calls.

River: 2♣ (10.24BB, 2 players)
Hero bets, Button calls.

Results:
Final pot: 12.24BB

I donked villain on the flop, that he isolates himself against me.

I played b/f on the river, because I hoped to win the pot against another busted draw. I know that there aren't a lot busted draws possible, but I need a fold equity of 10% only.

Correct play?

he doesn't isolate himself against you, he is isolating you when he raises you with a better hand. I would have checked, let button bet and if utg folds, raise, otherwise call. It is almost certain that villain has the best hand on the flop and maybe even a set with redraws against your straightdraw.
The riverbet is wasted, there is no better hand he would fold to a 2c on the river. He "might" fold AJ, AK, KJ (splitpot) but i somehow doubt it.
I would have c/f the river.

Shouldn't I always eliminate one opponent, when I'm 3-handed SH on the flop. And this with my made hands and my strong draws according to Korn's sh-guide?


you shouldn't always eliminate someone, especially not when you are likely behind as in this example. I doubt that you could win this hand without improving and won't make button fold a better hand.

Ok. But what is if the preflop-agressor is sitting in late position. Is then a c/r as semibluff a possible line?


i would c/r if the early position player folds. It looks like a value c/r and you have outs and could make A high fold.
If early player calls than the pot is too big and you are unlikely to win the pot right away and probably not on the turn either.
