With the A3o hand --> I like your check on the flop for the reasons that you stated.
Would you make the same check if you were say 85BB+ deep with villain? I like your check with that stack depth (<50BBs) because you can still have the opportunity to stack your opponent on turn cards that dramatically improve his range. I just think that IF you were really deep your main priority is going to be extracting value and trying to build a pot (which will lead to a massive stack that you can use to apply pressure).
If both opponents fold to a c-bet then so be it - I just think the value of giving us the chance to win a big pot far outweighs ensuring that we win a small-medium pot (by checking flop).
Keen to hear your thoughts. Keep the vids coming!!
Loved the video. Really good stuff, mate.
