In this video Dan plays 2 tables of $100 NL 6-Max on Full Tilt. Dan discusses 3-betting, what factors to consider and how balance might play into your 3-betting game.
Would you ever consider check calling the flop and get aggressive on the turn thinking that if the pfr bets and you flat it will make the fish(yilli?) in the CO more likely to put in dead money on the flop?
Or is your equity just too significantly less on the turn between bricks and the BTN folding a hand to a turn spade that would've gotten in on the flop?
This is all assuming the fish doesn't have an all-in hand.

I just feel like there's so many benefits to playing the hand aggressively - I never have terrible equity if I get it in, the fish will still probably put money in bad if I hit, and I can rep a big hand so I can get a lot of marginal hands to fold. Conversely if I play the hand passively my opponent can pot control turn with middle pair or something and then its just really hard to get him to fold later.
