Hey guys this was a failed attempt of mine at a triple barrel. I though it was good spot and barreling in this spot should be profitable in the long run. What do you think?

Fine triple barrell, just make sure you note Villians play so you can adjust....do they always called down light? Can you now value bet thinner? (Barreling Kx all the way etc.)
Hi there A_to_theG
I don't think your line is very convincing. On the flop, we rep Qx, on the turn Kx and on the river Ax. OK, you could have flopped a set or 2-pair, but 2-pair becomes very thin on the river, unless you have AQ for example. You're really repping that your hand improved on the turn/river. As a general rule, I don't bother bluffing unless it's clear what I'm supposed to have. Not sure an ace was the best barrel card either; although ace-high is rather an unlikely hand for opponent to have, him improving to 2-pair is more than possible.
If we had outs, this line would be much more profitable. As it is, we're barreling with pure air with an unconvincing line.
Hope this helps

Not sure your line is very convincing. On the flop we rep Qx, on the turn Kx and on the river Ax. Sure, we could have had a set or 2-pair, but these are a small part of our range. In addition, a flopped 2-pair becomes a very thin value bet by the river. We're really repping that our hand improved, maybe AQ, KQ etc. Not sure the ace is a good barrel card either; although it's unlikely opponent has ace high, there are many Ax in his defending range that improved to 2-pair.
I could accept this line if we had a decent number of outs, but as it is we're barreling pure air just based on perceived fold equity based on overcards on the turn and river.
Hope this helps
i am with adam on this one. you can´t really rep the ace here. often enough players would check back an ace or king on the flop, because the board hits a BB calling range pretty good and you can´t expect too many folds. you rep a very small value range. i would call with a queen here as well, it´s a pretty good bluff catching spot. you get the opponent off the queen a lot easier if you check back the flop and barrel turn and river. that is much more convincing.
i agree its a bad 3 barrel bluff
but i do NOT agree that the flop is bad to bet on
rainbow flop 1 high card as far as draws only if he called the flop with low or some middling hands 9T 79 7T etc
if i was out of position its a great flop for a check raise that said when in position i believe this flop should be C Bet 100% of the time
