yeah I think even though you won the pot you should put this hand in your check call range on the flop but it sucks to not have backdoor nut flush draw. if they insist on barreling you're probably up against a pocket pair so possibly drawing dead, or else you're just getting value from his bluffs. your c bet folds out everything you beat and gets called by everything better. I wonder if he had AJ or something. Don't think we can label this as "correct" .. kind of a wacky hand

def check back river 101% (what hands do you want to call you?)

yeah jam vs that stack size or raise much bigger to startle him and take it down pre :p

tbh you could just check it down with 33 hardly any flops are good for you when he calls so yeah I don't like that sizing at all. who cares what the runout is or what he had imo

I'm also the guy who likes to overbet (15-20% over pot nothing crazy) when I see a lack of aggression though.. but picking the spots to overbet as a bluff or for value is one of the most fun aspects of poker for me

I'd c bet flop like .24c or something.. confident bet takes it down a lot of the time, and play your range more so than your hand right? you have backdoors you can decide what to do on and its a rainbow flop so take that into account with his calling range and you have position on him. I think calling 87s is fine too but I like to 3 bet it as well but I'd make it 20 or 21 cents to maximize fold equity so it tightens up their range to some extent but that's being nit picky.. I think its fine to just give up on a scary flop vs some opponents but I'd put them in tough spots when they decide not to 4 bet and the ace comes on the flop. I'm ready to stack off when I 3 bet (evaluating that decision each street ofc) and like to be aggressive on certain flops based on ranges and backdoors just as much as I'd be aggressive on an A 8 7 flop or something. If you are going to be more passive just call pre for sure. But I don't think your thinking is "incorrect" because really your question is "do I c bet here" pretty much right?

But in all honesty you played it fine, poor flop for your hand haha. (But not your range!!!) :)

what is he calling flop with that he'd raise turn with? 3's and 5's, Q9s? assuming 9s is a 3 bet but I see 3 bet 4% so maybe he's just calling 9s pre... i think its one of "those" spots where you use info on opponent to decide if he'd raise flop with a set. possibly 3 betting 9s right? who cares about Q9 or the backdoor flush, not even 100 bb deep. I'd call but I'm sticky with aces. 150+ bb deep or something clear fold unless you're watching a marvel movie or something. Anyone agree or disagree?

can't look at results there i dont think

100% all in 10s+ AK there imo. what do you do with 8s or AQo though
