$3 NLHE MTT: Check Raise Flop OOP w non-ace overs

Villian Stats (VPIP/PFR/AF): 48/13/0.7

V's stats are above but a small sample of 48 hands.

V was opening 60% of hands on BTN but again that's like 5 hands.


I complete in the SB since the BB is ultra-tight running a 10/7. If BB was more aggressive I would three bet.


We get the classic game of chicken flop: 622.


Here's the preflop action.

and the flop:
*** FLOP ***: [6c 2d 2h]



Something I've been experimenting with is check raising with non-ace two overs to these boards.


Obviously V can have a pair, but I want Ace high to fold so I do not want to block Ace high.


I check raised this board and get called.


Player HERO checks
Player VILLAIN bets (160)
Player HERO raises (520)
Player VILLAIN calls (360)



Not a big fan of my sizing, probably should be around 400. 400, still gets the job done if V has air.


Anyways, I get called and the Turn is a king.


*** TURN ***: [6c 2d 2h] [Kc]



Are you firing here?

Eu vou verificar e deixá-lo apostar, no caso de ele entrar, ele tem um bom jogo. no final, é dobra que eu faria.
Sempre pense no alcance do seu adversário com o qual ele está pagando ??
o flop desce, e isso é para ver que ele tem uma ótima chance de bater um par,
Quando o K vem eu coloco seu alcance K6s, K2s, A2, e assim por diante. E 48 mãos do V não são suficientes para ter seu padrão de jogo.

Yeah, He have all K in his range. Of course he can have better K but there is more hands are worse than yours KT. You also could easy representing 2 because you defend BB

V might have any 2 cards, including the few combinations with a 2 or K.
The betting of V does not give much info to me, it seems a repeat of preflop, good position: go for it.
I would bet about 250-300, and likely repeat after the river.

You dont get to c/r this flop randomly like that with KTo , Villan is not supose to fold Ahigh there by the way.

Your value combinations are just almost none.. 3s-5s yeah, A6s and maybe if u have A6o. All rest of value hands should be 3betting preflop. Just call KTo there if he is so wide.

About turn, yeah u should bet ofc to get value from all worse pairs. Half pot is fine.
