Definitely raise bigger on flop - but ive just seen the lower part of your post acknowledging that.

We are 3 handed,I think its only one of 2 optioNs out of the 4 you mention imo.Definitely wouldn't involve folding.

For me its b/c or x/c.I think I'd be bet calling - hate him to check back a K or Weak A.

I think we hear from AK/AQ/Sets on the flop 3 way.2s arent sticking around on the flop - I cant see what we lose to.Id be betting and snap any raise.

Interesting. If you have AK/AQ/KQ in villains shoes do you happily stack of on flop? No you don't. If you b/snap - what hands do you expect villain to jam with?

Yes, i prefer raise more in flop because only call here hand how KQ-AQ-AK sets, then this hand i am sure that call 2.50$-3$ and in turn i prefer bet 80-90% of pot, card is very good for us, because not change nothing, in river is a easy check/call if bet is decent, more 70% of pot i make fold!

Agree with Juans line. If I was villain and I had AK or AQ or set I'd probably take this line IP as if you stack off only JT is calling you. Hero has no sets and not many 2 pairs. Hero might raise a GS and pair as a bluff but is never calling it if you stack. I'd call IP every time.

So just a thought, if we put our opponent on such a range as suggested by others, why not raise really big on the flop since they seem to be interested anyway and just ship the turn for an overbet? I'm pretty sure we get called by 2 pair or a set all day.

Just an idea.

I would lead out on the flop. I would assume both villains have weaker Ax hands that won't bet but will call. Everything else shouldn't matter as what calls your check raise will also call your lead.

The PFR might also raise your donk bet allowing you to make sure that a bet and two raises go in on the flop making them more likely to feel committed and go with it there and then.

Yeah this is just one of those spot that you can raise bigger on flop and the effect of that on later streets makes things a lot easier for us. It's so often underestimated about the value of what big sizing can do for us here. Then a bigger turn bet and have opponent feel committed.

What Turlock said is interesting here. And I also thought about making a ship on the turn. Since 3 handed, I think people will like their hand strength more with 2 pair and set, but the isuue is that all the value hands that ship are here, then wouldn't we have heard about it PF? AK,AQ,QQ,KK,AA. Seems like you'd see a 3 bet usually but not always.

I'd probably go for b/f as played though, I just don't see any bluffs coming at us.
