Stacks:
| UTG | ($241.17) | ||
| UTG+1 | ($556.45) | ||
| Hero (CO) | ($456.25) | ||
| BTN | ($409.55) | ||
| SB | ($198.00) | ||

Pre-flop: ($3, 6 players) Hero is CO

1 fold, UTG+1 raises to $7, Hero calls $7, BTN calls $7, 2 folds
Flop:
($24, 3 players)UTG+1 bets $12, Hero calls $12, BTN calls $12
Given stacks I am not super excited about raising the flop but that being said it might be the best play as it puts an insane amount of heat on the preflop raiser.
Turn:
($60, 3 players)
UTG+1 checks, Hero checks, BTN checks
Turn:
($60, 3 players)UTG+1 checks, Hero checks, BTN checks
I think I should fire here given my equity?
River:
($60, 3 players)
UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $48, BTN raises to $135, UTG+1 folds, Hero calls $87
River:
($60, 3 players)UTG+1 checks, Hero bets $48, BTN raises to $135, UTG+1 folds, Hero calls $87
I think betting is standard and when raised I doubt I ever see anything less then Axcc
Final Pot: $330

I raise this flop. Deep stacked I don't wanna play for stacks without the Jc turning. Rasing the flop should fold out most btn hands. Due to the fact you are deep, I don't think you are going to get reraised here very often if ever. So when he calls, you can finish the hand IP with control, and he often should be just folding. He really should never put you on a boat with your flop raise, but it's still hard for him OOP deep.
BTW.......I'm rasing this flop with the intention of folding to a reraise. Make it $40.
Interesting hand. Seeing as we're not drawing to the nuts on the flop I don't think we can play it that strongly.
On the flop I'd just flat. We're better off playing this hand for immediate drawing value and extracting from Qs and 9s when we hit. I think there's more value in playing it this way than trying to put heat on the other players to fold out hands. Also getting raised on the flop and having to fold would suck. Pretty clear flat I think.
Turn I'd probably check again. I think you fold out UTG+1 a lot but BTN's range is mostly QT/QJ type hands and FDs. If the river blanked off I think you'd have to fire again, which I wouldn't be too comfortable doing, even if you hit the river you might be behind. Also if BTN raises your turn raise you'd be in a sucky spot too. Check turn I reckon.
River standard.
