Message: [QUOTE="JackleOfCrackle, post: 4860643, member: 289939"] I think villians pre flop flat calling range here is all small to medium pocket pairs, suited connecters, broadways. This range on the flop really does not change much when he calls again (suited connectors are probably playing fit or fold though here) but he will be calling with any over cards and all pairs here IMO. I do not mind checking back the turn but we are somewhat turning our cards face up and its really looking like a weakish pair or just bluffy steal attempt. For this reason I feel there is some argument for another barrel. Think about how hard it is to remain sticky OOP with weak holdings in these types of situations when facing barrels. I think we get more folds of hands that are beating us (pairs of 4+) on the turn than we do on your check turn bet river line and even if we don't get a fold and a good card for our range comes on the river we have a much more believable story to tell when we do decide to barrell the river. In saying all that it is turning our 3s pretty much into a bluff. So as I said I really do not mind the check back either but I think its something to consider. Anyways, as played the K is good for a range and a big bet does make a call hard. But it must be a decent size bet (pot or larger). With a line like this I think anything near a pot size bet makes it difficult for all his medium to weak hands to call and even putting a lot of pressure on Jx. Any normal value looking raise (80% pot or less) at these limits get called down with medium pairs and Jx too often here I think. [/QUOTE]
