Looking for a line check. Not too much of a read on the player been at the table for about 10 hands. My thinking going in was to call a bet in position with the intent of calling one at least. I flop the 10 and continue with my plan. I opt for a check raise when I also turn the nut flush draw. How was my bet sizing? when he calls and then leads I give him credit for a JJ+ type hand. Just don't see many hands I'm ahead of. Hows my line overall? opinions of the fold etc

While I like seeing flops with hands that can hit huge and stack opponents, this is a perfect example of why calling an EP raise with a hand like AT just puts you in crappy spots. His line could easily be an overpair going for river value if he puts you on a hand like T8, or a bluff with a missed draw (though you hold nut diamonds) and unless he had something like J9s and plays it UTG, he's not going to have a lot of bluffs here. He could also have a hand like 88/55 as well. You also have 88/55 in your range here a decent bit and it doesn't seem like he cares (or can range people). Readless I'm going to fold this early on.

 

Maybe I'm just a nit, but I don't like raising the turn here. Don't want to stack off 6k if he shoves over our turn raise and we have way too much value to turn our hand into a bluff. Probably calling flop/turn and deciding river.. which I'm leading towards the fold based on what I said above.

about 10 hands later this hand comes up. he's been a little aggro and got a nice double with KK where he 4bet strong and got it in on a low flop with KK.That hand I had 3bet the original raiser and folded after his 4bet with KK and a call pre.

I think it's player/table dependant.. 60bbs effective with position 2 lines come to mind

A- bump it up OTF. I like the smallish sizing you chose on the turn, make it similar (650-725) on the flop/check behind turn/snap off some of his river leads. We could also bet/calloff on the turn and feel okay about it even vs. the tightest of ranges..

B- call flop/call turn/evaluate river

You create problems for yourself raising the turn. It may not be a big factor in $11 f/o's but still,, you're kinda turning your hand face up here and destroying some of the implied value of the backdoor FD. JJ+ is more likely to find a fold or just check/call on diamond rivers.

Hand 1 nut card to flat turn, in general he is going to b/c a ton of his overpairs on a diamond river so we have 3 aces 2 10s and diamonds to complete our hand. fold river as he has JJ+ and we are crushed.

I agree with this. Since it's a UTG open I lean toward Option B if we're readless on villain.

^^ Option A crushes imo.. makes for an easy r/f on the flop as opposed to call pre/c flop/c turn/c riv… again, almost turns AT face up no?

What to we get value from by rf on the flop? All we do is fold out stuff we beat and allow him to play perfectly.

Can see that, yeah. Could also disguise our flush draw very well by taking a passive line. Not sure we're ever really getting put on diamonds and we could make a bluffy bet size if it fills up on the river. 

I don't like the idea of r/f tolding TPTK with backdoor outs, though … 

Bleh. I see merits in each.
