Too aggressive sizing on flush made PF?

Too aggressive sizing on flush made PF?

MP: 105.5 BB (VPIP: 42.86, PFR: 38.10, 3Bet Preflop: 25.00, Hands: 21)
CO: 169 BB (VPIP: 20.69, PFR: 10.34, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 30)
BTN: 50 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 2)
Hero (SB): 132 BB
BB: 102.5 BB (VPIP: 40.00, PFR: 16.67, 3Bet Preflop: 7.14, Hands: 30)
UTG: 100 BB (VPIP: 10.71, PFR: 7.14, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 28)

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A K

UTG raises to 2 BB, fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to 8 BB, BB calls 7 BB, UTG raises to 14 BB, Hero calls 6 BB, BB calls 6 BB

Flop: (42 BB, 3 players) 2 8 5
Hero bets 14 BB, fold, fold

Hero wins 39 BB

On this hand, how would u bet to keep the loose calling station (BB) and the NIT (UTG) enticed? small bets?

I should have checked in hindsight to trap but happy with this hand regardless. Sometimes I felt that I'm too aggro and they keep folding when I'm not bluffing. I love playing this style though. Problem only comes when u get caught bluffing (bad spot)

I like checking rather than donk because they often won't continue without a heart. So either they will bluff or you'll scare them away.

Yes, sometimes i check. Someone did bluff me 3 way back then on a flush on the flop till the river and ended up seeing the bad news. this time I switched to bet which was unfortunate.


Check and let the UTG bet. I would probably call then x/r most turns.


check even when it check trough we give them the opportunity to hit a tp hand for example bb will have hands like JTs etc here wich would be terrible to fold out. So check and if utg bets check raise he will have to often AA KK type hands when he cb and he is very nitty so want to get it in asap vs him.
