MP2 raises everything pf (It kinda matters even tho he folds the flop).

Party Poker 0.50/1 Hold'em (9 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A:spade:, K:spade:.
Hero raises, 2 folds, MP2 3-bets, 3 folds, SB caps, 1 fold, Hero calls, MP2 calls.

Flop: (13 SB) 4:club:, A:heart:, 7:spade: (3 players)
SB bets, Hero raises, MP2 folds, SB 3-bets, Hero calls.

Turn: (9.50 BB) 4:spade: (2 players)
SB bets, Hero...

Just a call? Any value in a raise?

I'm almost positive i'm being results oriented here, but turn call is standard?

Any thought about capping the flop?

If he leads then, you can call down.

If he checks to you, you can bet, if he c/r you, then I think you can fold.

Am i missing something here.

This turn seems like the most straight forward raise ever. If he doesnt have aces we are way way ahead.

But yea turn call is no where near standard. Raise that turn all day.

Good call. If you are just calling the 3-bet on the flop, raise the turn. I probably play it differently though, and cap the flop, and call down if he leads the turn.

raising the turn we either get 3-bet by AA or KK-TT slows down, I think.

what about calling the turn and raising the river?

i'm tired, so maybe not...

You have to raise the turn...raise raise raise. Is SB really 3-betting 77 or 44 pre flop? I doubt it. With you holding an Ace we can give a lot less credence for him holding AA. Plus, SB would be playing a monster rather hard. I'd be more concerned of AA if we were check-raised on the turn than with him leading out like that. meh, I'd put him on AK or AQ. You're ahead or split way more often than behind here. I wouldn't wait for the river to raise. Get the money in now.
