1/3 AK, we pulling the trigger?
1/3 9 handed
V opens wide for 10 frequently even w/limpers. Small percentage of the time open 15 w/ or w/o limpers, assume 15 has a tighter range. He's been sitting with huge stack(3story chip tower) 1600+ since I've sat down.
He cbets wide even in mwp, barrel small frequently. He's a bit aggro but not super crazy. Only winning small pots here and there.
Hero has 3betted his 10$ open at least twice and folded them.

Hero??
Are we giving up? emptying the clip?
Cbet 35 because V has a strong hand after V opened UTG and called hero’s 3bet.
AP, does V have a fold button? A read would help. V seemed to like his hand on the flop. I doubt a buff gets through on the turn brick. I give up.
C-bet smaller in 3BP's, like 1/3 pot, not 1/2 pot.
As played, we might have enough SDV to check back and bluff-catch the river.
What’s your plan for bluffing? We have $410 behind and there’s $184 in the pot. Are we just 2x pot jamming then?
I don’t think we’re deep enough to get 99/TT to fold with that line.
We have sdv, I agree with doc best course of action is to check back, and consider bluff catching river based on Vs sizing
I like betting small on the flop & small on the turn - a bluff that doesn’t have to work very often. The idea is that villain will not be content with little bets if he’s loaded and when he raises the fold is easy.
If villain calls along, you realize your equity on the river & it opens up other options as well.
Often at the low limits, the betting escalates & pots become huge quickly. I know one guy that raises the flop and no matter what happens, he follows by jamming the river. Then, he storms off when he goes bust. Never realizes that most of the room is trapping him.
My point is that there’s a lot of clueless bet-sizing to be considered

The only hands that are folding the turn to a small bet are Ax floats that we’re way ahead of.
Yes if V just calls we get to realize our equity, but we also get to do that when we check back.
I don’t know what this story about some guy in your card room has to do with anything
We can 3 barrel allin, representing QQ-AA or more or less give up.

Bet flop way smaller. Check turn.
If you play that way, you will never get him to fold a better hand. Maybe that is OK. Is that the way you are playing AA/KK? I think with a big pair you try to gii by the river on a low choppy board. They I would want to cbet about the actual sizing if I had a big pair or complete air.
I mean it is safer to cbet small and check the turn. However, a big pair is usually going to try to get allin in 3 bets on this board. So you might want to try to represent that for 1, 2, or 3 bets when you missed it.
This is a 1/3 game, so a high percentage of 3!s are big pairs. It depends on the opponent, but if you keep representing a big pair, a lot of people will fold some pp they called with halfway to set mine.
This is the kind of flop you want to make a play on. Similarly, a dry A or K high flop would be good for making a play if you had 3! light and missed the flop.
probably impossible to answer w/o a read. my guess is you dont have any FE to bluff a better hand this deep vs most players because everyone puts you on AK. if you were $1000 deep then id consider it.
id also consider flatting pre vs an UTG raise and no other dead money. you could always back 3b if someone squeezes behind.
If you have no FE against a pp on this flop, you can stack him every time when you 3! a big pp.
Deep, against his larger EP sizing, only in MP, with no real dead money, and a hand that plays fine multiway, I might just flat preflop (sometimes looking to pull the ol' flat/4bet against a looser 3better).
With nothing going for us on this flop and him never folding to at least one bet with what is likely a strong hand, I'd actually give up UI.

Poor read that V has 99/TT? Also not sure what I did to this other guy calling me little man? lol 🤷♂️
Not sure Adl is PresDeuce. He seems like a better player than PD. There are lots of donkish posters in this forum.
Is the consensus to just play AK for showdown value here? I guess if the UTG raiser has a pp, it is likely to be 99+, which is going to be hard to get to fold on this board.
