NL10 KQs

Posted 8 years ago

My questions here are firstly, after my iso raise, is it still generally fine to call this 3bet IP with this hand with this size?

Secondly, when he fires this high (and he did it almost instantly) ... can we actually make exploitable folds here?
I'm sure people will be like... huh? What? Fold?

Well I'm just wondering Smile

Player 4(SB) $5.24 - VP:43 PFR:0 AF:5.0 W:25|0 STL:0|0 3B:0| CB:|0 N:-4.81 Hands:7
Player 5(BB) $10.90 - VP:18 PFR:15 AF:Inf. W:0| STL:67|67 3B:6| CB:100| N:2.22 Hands:35
Me(CO) $10.94
Player 6(UTG) $13.31 - VP:22 PFR:2 AF:5.0 W:29|100 STL:14|89 3B:5|50 CB:|67 N:6.26 Hands:41
Player 2(BTN) $13.98 - VP:27 PFR:22 AF:2.0 W:29|50 STL:44|80 3B:19|50 CB:100|0 N:-5.02 Hands:41


Pre Flop: Me(CO) with [Qs,Ks]
Player 6(UTG) calls 0.10,
Me(CO) raises 0.40,
Player 2(BTN) folds,
Player 4(SB) folds,
Player 5(BB) raises 1.20,
Player 6(UTG) folds,
Me(CO) calls 0.90


Flop: (6d,8c,Kc)(2 players)
Pot - 2.75
Player 5(BB) bets 2.05,
Me(LP) ?

Preflop is good. I see the temptation to fold given his snapbet but if you fold this flop then you should be folding preflop since it's among the better flops you'll get. I would call. If he snapships the turn I think you can find a fold but I think on the flop is just too early.

Well, while many people at those stakes will have a reasonably honest betsizing many others won't think about it at all so 2$ into 2.75$ might as well be your opponent's standard. If you think your hand is strong enough to call pre you should definitely continue on this texture.

I think we're folding way too much if we're folding this in position.

I know what you're thinking about his snap bet, but TBH I'm not convinced that means any kind of strength, and most players will auto fire a K high flop if they've 3 bet.

I'm still getting away on the turn though because it's unlikely that he expects you to fold Kx very often and we shouldn't expect him to carry on bluffing

Although we should call OTF saying "if we are going to fold we should just fold this preflop" is a little silly. Villain won't always make it this size and if we knew he only did it when he has the nuts then calling preflop is perfect to thenf old here. As we don't know that we have to call OFC Smile

So, does nobody else suspect the old limp/reraise with KK+/AK then?

If we knew this and it's unlikely they think that doesn't really wash with a l/c fairly unknown imo, so I'd fold preflop.
