Hello,

Was it correct to 3bet preflop here and fold OTF?

PokerStars, $1.78 + $0.22 - Hold'em No Limit - 15/30 (4 ante) - 9 players
Hand delivered by Upswing Poker

UTG: 1,484 (49 bb)
UTG+1: 1,356 (45 bb)
MP: 1,474 (49 bb)
MP+1: 1,629 (54 bb)
LP: 2,164 (72 bb)
CO (Hero): 1,454 (48 bb)
BU: 681 (23 bb)
SB: 1,774 (59 bb)
BB: 1,484 (49 bb)

Pre-Flop: (81) Hero is CO with Q A
1 fold, UTG+1 raises to 75, MP calls 75, MP+1 calls 75, 1 fold, Hero 3-bets to 270, 5 players fold, MP+1 calls 195

Flop: (771) 3 K Q (2 players)
MP+1 bets 385, CO (Hero) folds

Any info on the villains in the hand would be great. Against unknowns I would just call. It's tough to get 3 villains to fold with a 3bet and you play in position most of the time.

On the flop I would fold as well. I expect villain has often at least top pair based on the pre-flop action, but it's tricky without reads or stats.

Cheers

In most parts I agree with @SDK1987

AQo is not a mandatory 3b here (in my playbook at least).

Your hand is a gr8 example why. You get into an akward post flop spot where it's hard to peel a card due to stack sizes

AK is a mandatory 3b for me, while AQ requires some info on villains.
