I try(at my best) to follow the strategy/charts as strictly as I can. However, I usually struggle with this kind of situation. 3-bet pot and I am holding a medium-trash hand. Should I c-bet here? If so, how much?

Also, how would you play this hand differently?

Hey Sp00nman,

You can c-bet 3-bet pots almost always if you miss like it is the case in this hand.

C-bet of half pot would be the way to go. If you c-bet you still have a nice chance of winning the pot on the flop which makes a c-bet +EV and if you don't c-bet you give the villain chance to bluff you out of the hand with worse. One more thing, there are also 3 overcards you have to protect from.

Best regards,
