Hi All,

Not sure about this one, should I have worked out that I was beat and quit or played more cautiously?
I'm sure I played the draw on the flop too aggressively.
I hadn't been at the table long so not sure of the players yet apart from the initial raiser in late position had been getting involved a lot.

Thanks guys,

Sam

Hi!

Respect the articles. Never coldcall just 1 player.Its always raise or fold(except in BB which is totally different) In this case you have a super easy 3bet.

As played I would probably just call flop and just play it passive and try to keep both players in the pot.On these stakes you will never make them fold pair and you dont want to isolate yourself with LP.

There are some arguments about fold equity( thinking that SB can have weak hand very often and LB is raising very wide also to try to kick you out) so 3betting is hardly a mistake.

Turn and river are easy.
