Fold to 3bet pre
Id just flat the flop, once you raise and he 3bets I might fold even with those odds.
turn I check back
Take the free card and hope for a miracle. Even a five will give you showdown value.
Very weird line you have taken, did you have any reads?
I really should have folded at that point, but history is history.
The check on the turn was interesting. He'd re-raised, lead out and re-re-raised, so the check as a trapping play confused me. I was torn between the check and pray, and the fire and pray (an an atheist, both options were less than satisfactory).
if you are going to bluff, you would be better just shoving earlier not calling his re-raise on the flop - when he min re-raises you should fold or shove - calling to get more value makes no sense when you dont have a hand
as of now, either give up or shove, but realise you are shoving as a bluff, not hoping to catch an A or a 4
as current position, check is probably the best option - if you hit the 4 you lucked out, if you hit the A you could still be behind
Certainly, it seems I have 2 options.
1. Check behind and hope to hit the misacle 4, or possibly one of my 2 cards.
2. Take a crack at it now as a bluff, and hope his check is weak, rather than strong.
Clearly the best option is
3. Fold pre to the re-raise and have a night out with what you saved.
If I am in his shoes with the nuts, or even a decent hand, I'm shoving on the turn, not checking. He has no need to trap me (I have done that myself). If I have AA or AK or KK, on that board to that caller, I am chucking the lot in, and hoping I don't run into 22 or 33.
The check just didn't sit with what had gone before.
given how you've played it, you could follow through and bet here as long as you know its a bluff, not thinking your ahead
he could just as easily be looking to check raise you given the aggression on the flop
If you think villain is fos, would 4b/f pre not be better than flatting?
Also how aggro is he? Would floating the flop be an option rather than bluff raising?
But thet way the whole hand has been played is just horrible - had you been looking to get into this sort of situation with him? otherwise I dont really see any need to call the 3bet pre.
So... A push looks very strong as he's getting massive odds to call - checking back just looks weak and unless you hit the 4 you might aswell give up - even if you hit the ace I wouldnt feel comfortable calling off an All-in. I think what i'm saying is it just depends on how you read the villain.
