Pacific $200.00 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players - View hand 1574301
DeucesCracked Poker Videos Hand History Converter

Hero (UTG): $243.95
MP: $200.00
CO: $256.40
BTN: $276.85
SB: $286.68
BB: $170.85

Pre Flop: ($3.00) Hero is UTG with 5 :spade: 4 :spade:
Hero raises to $6, MP raises to $16, 5 folds

Villain is 22/18/9.6
He 3bets to 8 bbs as a standard amount.

Can you give me a general thought of how to adjust best vs lower 3bets?
I have some problems adjusting to such villains(mbml was one of them - he raised to 7 bbs tho) I was thinking of calling 3bet in this spot with any pocket since his range should be tight and I'm getting good odds.

In late positions I should probably call any 78s-KQs, TQs-AQs, 88-TT(JJ), KTs+, AJo+. Thoughts?

It depends entirely on the range he 3bets. Generally when somebody makes it so small they do it because they have a wide range and don't want to create too much dead money by 3betting big.

There are 2 adjustments: 4bet more and/or call 3bets.

Which one is applicable depends on the opponents skill and his 4bet-call/5bet tendencies.
The better he is the stronger the hand we want to play OOP vs him should be as his skill advantage IP is dominating.
If he is calling vs 4bets or even 5betbluffing then we certainly want to 4bet the top of our range and additional hands depending on how much he plays back.

I definitely recommend not to call smth like 87s OOP, even though it's a small 3bet it's still a 17.5BB pot on the flop and you'll be all in considerably often.
With 87s vs a 15% range you don't have too many implieds and only 35% equity:

Here are some other stovings, and I recommend you to do some more yourself.

edit: Ooops, I intended to copy them as BB code to make them easier to read, I hope it's ok like this, too.
