Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.02/$0.04 No-Limit Hold'em (8 handed)
Known players:
[tg]CO (Hero)$1.14:///////;BU$3.95:///////;SB$4.20:///////;BB$2.30:///////;UTG2$3.52:///////;MP1$7.60:///////;MP2$4.97:///////;MP3$4.18:///////;[/tg]
Preflop: Hero is CO with K:s, J:s.
3 folds, MP3 calls $0.04, Hero calls $0.04, BU folds, SB calls $0.02, BB checks.

Flop: ($0.16) 3:s, 8:s, 2:h (4 players)
SB checks, BB checks, MP3 bets $0.08, Hero raises to $0.16, SB folds, BB folds, MP3 calls $0.08.

Turn: ($0.48) 4:c (2 players)
MP3 bets $0.08, Hero raises to $0.24, MP3 raises to $3.98, Hero calls $0.70.

The way he had played it made me think he was on a flush draw. Should this 3-bet make me worry about a stronger hand?

River: ($5.4) 7:c (2 players)

Final Pot: $5.4.

Results follow:

Hero shows high card king(Ks Js).

MP3 shows two pairs, fours and twos(2c 4s).

MP3 wins with two pairs, fours and twos(2c 4s).

I have posted a similar hand earlier, where I was in early position with a better hand. So how should I have played this one?

Hello Phoenix,

I strongly dislike your preflop play, I prefer to raise it preflop as you saw plenty of times in my coachings. Limping is very weak move as you are most likely going to limp/call if you get raised which is pretty marginal.

If we really have a good hand on the Flop, why do you only minraise there?
Isn't far better to raise it bigger to utilize our fold equity then?

As played I also dislike your turnraise, I just call because our equity is severely low and I do not think your raising sizes is going to make him fold anything

Best regards,
Gerv
