The problems with this hand start pre-flop. I dont like 3bet vs early position opener especially in FR. You are over-repping your hand really hard.

I would assume UTG's calling range is pretty tight unless he's a fish. Maybe QQ+, AK. If this is true your flop value-bet is obviously pretty bad. You need him to be calling with stuff like AJ, TJ, QT, AQ, preflop, and even if that is true you are only really targetting the suited combinations of AJ, and AQ on the flop.

As played I don't really see what you beat on the turn apart from a few combinations of flush-draws / straight draws (which may not even be in his range). Even those hands have equity vs you.

The river is a standard call obviously. That's the only part of the hand I like.

Hi Axeboy,

Preflop: I don't like the 3-bet preflop because it turns our hand into a bluff.

I would rather call here.

As played the turn call might be light but he bets small so could have some draws. The rest looks fine but again I wouldn't 3-bet preflop.
