Am i right in saying that this is a good flop for us to cbet, given the OESD and the over card?? Then when he 3bets what do we do? We're getting approx 4-1 expressed odds if we consider the 7's Q's and K's to make us the winning hand, but as we're only getting just under 2.5-1 pot odds when he raises it'd be wrong to flat call, can we shove over the top and put him all in??

I probably just check behind on this flop. We've got an OESD but there's a flush draw out there as well and that's potentially taking away from our outs. I don't necessarily know that we can count kings as full outs either. They improve us, but only to a very marginal hand.

Going back another step, I probably fold this preflop. We're effectively just stealing, and I'd like to know at least a little about the villain in the big blind before I try that.

As played, I probably cut my losses and fold. There's pretty much nothing we're ahead of this stage, and we can't even be certain our outs are good.

alright pal
gotta say that i would have folded pre flop but
if i was to see a flop i wouldnt like that one k 10 has got me into lots of trouble ,i would have just folded it as a steal attempt that didnt pan out ,you could very well have had the best hand but ,that flop looked dangerous to me ..

Folding this PF is a serious leak, imo.

On the flop, I check it back. The board is very coordinated and villain is short. There's a high likelihood of him shoving pretty much any pair/draw and forcing us to fold our hand. Which is bad because we have good equity vs. his range.

Also, table select better. Half the table is under 60bb's.
