In a previous thread discussing long poker sessions I made comment about having aces cracked multiple times in one session. Someone suggested that I post in the strategy section to see if I played them correctly... so each topic will have one hand:

The turn is really bad.

What do you think sb is 3-betting this flop with after 2 opponents showed so much strength pf?

I'd just call down from the turn and expect to lose quite often.

No reads?

PF is fine, obviously.

Flop, I 3-bet this and fold to a cap instead of cold calling 2.

Turn. Wow, you really spewed here, there can be no question. As you played the flop, I just call here.

River. Fine.

Misread the action. I thought you 3-bet the flop.

Yeah, 3-bet the flop. Call a cap. Fold turn UI.

not sure if i agree with folding the turn UI. one guy could just be donking it up which isn't uncommon at the .25/.50 level and the other guy could easily play QQ KK here the same exact way, if he's semi retarded he may even play mid pairs this way

am i totally wrong here?

At this level, for 1, 2, or 4 bets, SOMEBODY's got a jack.

We have two outs and no redraws to beat a jack. 3-bet flop, call cap, fold turn UI.

Yeah, pot is big enough to call a flop cap at 19 small bets (I didn't take the time to count). 3-bet the flop, call a cap, fold turn UI if bet into.

On this board, after we show so much strenght, I think we can safely fold the turn if we play it this way.
