1/2, $500 eff: Should I checkraise all in with TP?

Yeah against a nitty player, turning this into a bluff is probably profitable.

But also, why are you in this hand? A nitreg 3bet your LJ range to 3.5x; this is a really bad call imo. I mean you've hit top pair and you're pretty sure you're behind (which I agree with); how are you ever getting the price to call? Just fold preflop.

Fold pre.
As played ck/rs has merit.

This was the 3rd time in 5 minutes our preflop open was being 3b (albeit from another reg) so it felt like I was getting pushed around and had to take a stand. 4b or fold prob better though I guess.

Do you guys x/r all in or a smaller size like $250 leaving some room to fold if he jams?

Why would an alleged nitreg be pushing anyone around preflop?

Fold>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Raise>>>Call

Seems to me like our hand is too strong to turn into a bluff, yet not strong enough to raise for value, so I'd probably just call turn and see the river.

I don't understand how you're ranging V as mostly QQ+, with no sets, then immediately say he can have some sets and QTs. If he's capable of 3B'ing a UTG 5x open with QTs, then he's capable of showing up with all sorts of hands we have beat.

If we think he's capable of triple barreling with his bluffs, all the more reason to just call, not raise, to keep all his bluffs in.

I'm not sure what hands we'd be repping with a turn jam. If we're repping sets, wouldn't we often raise those on the flop? The only set with a club in it would be 9c9x, so a check raise here isn't repping much for value. I think a check-jam gets called a lot here, by all his over-pairs and his combo draws.

I'd rather have JTs or QJs to check raise here - some top pair combo that blocks the nuts, with a redraw to a straight, if not a combo draw, like JTdd or QJdd.

That said, our hand blocks KK and unblocks his most likely draws, so I suppose there's some merit to raising with it. I just wouldn't expect him to fold very many better hands, nor fold all his best combo draws. I don't think I could easily fold QQ+ here.

Just because you're watching HH videos and know turn x/r's are nutted doesn't mean he's gotten the same memo. My turn x/r's get called at a surprisingly high frequency, often by some surprisingly weak hands. When the board is super draw heavy, opponents tend to get more sticky with their over-pairs.

Fold to 3b. You hit a good flop and now feel like you need to bluff.

Turn jam should get through.

your hand is too strong to bluff. bluff with something like T8, but not in this spot given pf action. do it when you are the big blind and are defending.

if you are confident in your read just fold the turn, though. im also not sure what you're repping by cring turn. most decent regs assume sets fastplay flops OOP vs pf 3bettors. if you cr me here i would jam with TPTK or better, as i would guess you either turned a FD or have AJ or something and just decided to go with your hand.

Something else just occurred to me - don't bluff into opponents showing strength, bluff into opponents showing weakness.

This guy 3B you pre, c-bet over 1/2 pot, and barreled for over 2/3 pot. And you're thinking about turning TP2K into a bluff? On this insanely connected and draw-heavy board? Dafuq?

He's repping a ton of strength. He's probably never folding a better hand. And yet, according to your read, he could show up here with some triple-barrel bluffs.

Why in L. Ron Hubbard's name would we want to check-jam, when that's going to fold out all his trash, and just leave him with stuff that has us crushed, or at worst some sort of super-high-equity combo-draw?

I actually saw this exact play in my last session. Some dude check-jammed turn with 2nd pair on a three-flush board and got snapped off by the PFR with a flopped top set. I honestly think the embarrassment of saying "I just have an 8" was worse than losing his stack.

If you're not comfortable playing OOP against this V, then over-fold your speculative hands pre. If you're going to raise-call with KJs pre, but you're not confident letting V barrel off when you make TP2K on a super-dynamic, bluffs-a-plenty board, you may want to find a softer game.

PS - you seem to describe all your opponents as nitregs, which simply can't be true at 1/2. You also can't be a nitreg when you're finding your way into this spot with KJs and you're considering turning it into a bluff by check-jamming with it, into an opponent who's repping massive strength. That's extremely un-nitreg.

Fold to the 3bet. If you shove the turn, it looks very bluffy. It comes down to whether he is scared money and will sigh-fold or if he is OK reloading and will sigh-call.

Personally, I don't like it. You are repping very thin.
