Obviously pre-flop is standard but I just wanted some thoughts on my play on the flop, turn and river.

Tbh I prob flat the flop. Not sure if that's a mistake or not - feel free to slate me anyone if it is. My thinking is that it's a 3way pot and a guy donks, admittedly a weak donk bet but Idk what he's doing it with - prob a weak K or 2nd pair and a fd. I don't think he's folding to a raise so I just pot control and flat on a scaryish board. 

As played I prob bet the turn for value and protection

yh std raise for value otr

raising flop then checking turn is so meh

No, no, no! Don't hide results. It's so much easier to give good advice when we know who won. lol

I wouldn't mind flatting the flop. If you raise and are 3-bet, do you really want to be stacking off on this board?

If you're going to raise, you've got to make it bigger. You want to charge flush-draws but you're offering good odds if he's got one. Irresistable odds of 4:1 in fact. Just about perfect direct odds. We allow our opponent to either call and see the turn with a draw - without it being a mistake to do so - or to raise and put us in a really tricky spot.

I like percival's line of flatting the flop, even though it's a tiny lead from your opponent. Maybe you should be grateful for the opportunity to keep the pot small. If he's got a weak King you can still get value down the streets on non-clubs.

Oh yes, don't check the turn if you raise the flop. Not the spot to be offering free cards.

like the raise on flop but bigger, why are you raising - for value versus all them big equity hands and for protection

gotta bet turn

river didn't get that far...one minute
would like some reads on the small river bet as played but think your raise is too big anyway - oppo small bet gotta means something right :S Is there a relation to the small flop bet and small river bet ? weak but not that weak meh when oppo flats your raise on flop and now on river it's the same right ! If you get what I am saying.....

grantorino

Normally I flat flop, but I like raising v that minibet

Bet turn

I like river
