BTN: $8.88 - VPIP: 0, PFR: 0, 3B: 0, AF: 0,0, Hands: 6
SB: $10.00 - VPIP: 25, PFR: 25, 3B: 0, AF: 4,0, Hands: 59
Hero (BB): $10.42 - VPIP: 18, PFR: 15, 3B: 6, AF: 2,9, Hands: 65876
UTG: $11.40 - VPIP: 35, PFR: 29, 3B: 0, AF: 1,3, Hands: 17
MP: $12.21 - VPIP: 12, PFR: 4, 3B: 0, AF: 1,7, Hands: 25
CO: $7.85 - VPIP: 26, PFR: 13, 3B: 0, AF: 2,0, Hands: 23

Pre Flop: ($0.15) Hero is BB with K :spade: A :diamond:
UTG raises to $0.30, 4 folds, Hero raises to $1, UTG calls $0.70

Flop: ($2.05) A :club: 9 :spade: Q :spade: (2 players)
Hero bets $1.00, UTG raises to $10.40, Hero folds

Final Pot: $4.05
UTG wins $3.87
(Rake: $0.18)

i guess folding is the right move here because of that Q as most often he will hold AQ here...?

Hey vuciitis,

Generally when UTG opens it's a better play to flat call AKo in the blinds rather than 3bet.

Flop cbet is good.

I agree, we can likely fold to shove on the flop. It will be AQ/QQ/99 very often.

Firstly of course we don't play fit or fold just because we are OOP :)

There are 2 reasons why 3betting is not great.

1) We can't profitably stack off vs a 4bet given these positions. 3bet/folding AKo sucks for obvious reasons.

2) We may isolate ourself against a range that has us beat. I.e regulars will treat a 3bet vs their UTG raise with a lot of respect at these limits. They may fold everything apart from QQ+/AK. (A range which has us beat).

I don't mind 3betting PF if we have notes on villain and he`s likely to call with worst + we`re going to get a lot of folds from hands that have good equity against us... and vs which we`ll play OOP with no initiative if we just call.

As player:
Flop = easy fold to the raise :f_biggrin:

3-bet could be fine pre-flop, indeed. It just depends on how aggro you are in general pre-flop and how well can you do post-flop in single-raised/3-bet pots. Usually players do call dominated hands pre-flop on NL10 and sometimes you can find very interesting hands in their calling range tbh
