    Default Good bluff or donkish move?

    Check-call flop, lead turn looks super-strong, right? Button is 23/19/3 over ~50 hands so surprisingly TAG for a freeroller. I figured he's not calling this without a K or a flush, and I put him on Ax (his flop bet didn't really scream "I HAVE TOP PAIR DON'T CALL ME WITH YOUR FLUSH DRAW" so Kx was out of the equation) figuring he'd re-raise a pocket pair. Obviously I know his A isn't the Ac, so I thought this would be a good spot to take the pot.

    Full Tilt Poker Game #3726361382, $100 Freeroll
    Big Blind is t300

    BTN (8,545)
    SB (5,470)
    BB (1,533)
    UTG (55)
    UTG+1 (1,890)
    MP1 (19,415)
    MP2 (3,571)
    MP3 (5,674)
    Hero (8,575)

    Preflop (t975): Hero is CO with 9, A
    4 folds, MP3 calls 300, Hero raises to 1,200, BTN calls 1,200, 3 folds

    Flop (t3,675): J, 3, K
    Hero checks, BTN bets 1,500, Hero calls 1,500

    Turn (t6,675): 4
    Hero bets 5,850 (all-in)

    So, or ?

    I dont mind this at all, but the fellar is most likely going to call and the Jc on the river will give him a full house and you'll cry.

    I like it, but only if you were willing to call him if you checked and he shoved.
    I study at KRE8R's School of Bankroll Management.

    If you IM me looking for money or a trade, you will be blocked.

    Yeah I don't think he can call. You look like a donk who pushes whenever he gets the nuts. Just pray that he doesn't have Qc Tc.

    Not really, the pot is t6.6k and I have 5.8k, any half pot+ bet commits me so a push is my only move if I'm betting this turn.

    Hm yes, but you guys seem to be on a MTT table, where people are usually more conservative. His flop bet suggests he doesn't have have a strong made hand, so I doubt he will call here.
