Standard? I was playing this as aggressively as possible to get this HU.

I think I like calling the flop 3-bet and raising the turn better. You're obviously not losing CO on the flop and there are a BUNCH of cards that can come kill your hand on the turn.

Makes sense to me.

But which turn cards will make us play differently?
Do we call behind if an A or K hits?
Or do you still raise it up?

[mikeysong]

if A or K hits, I say raise/fold

[GamblinLeaf]

Without reads I'd consider a PF 3-bet. I think the hand plays much differently that way.

As played, I also like the idea of calling the flop 3-bet and raising the turn.

Yes, I always 3bet this preflop in this situation as well.

Three-bet PF. 77 and 88 would be somewhat marginal decisions, but you have to 3-bet 99 here every time.

When you get led into on the turn after capping the flop, I'd start to worry about a set or two pair and just call down.

[mikeysong]

are we 3betting pf to take control of the hand and feel out his?

HU I 3bet, but I felt the sb would stay in, even if CO capped
