FLOP ($380) J♣ T♠ 7♥

Hero bets $180, BTN calls $180

TURN ($740) J♣ T♠ 7♥ A♦

Hero bets $380, BTN raises to $840, Hero ???

villain is 174 hands/ 25/14 /3bet 7.7/ AF 1.1/ Fold to flop cbet 25% (8 hands)

with those odds...and TP.... hard to fold, but it stinks like AT or AJ...maybe even KQ.

Hello Whysoseriouz,

Preflop:

Just call. There is no need to 3-bet. When we 3-bet and villain pushes we should fold. So we are turning our hand in to a bluff.

Flop:

OK. On this board we can even give up. But c-bet is also fine.

Turn:

Bet/fold is fine. Everything which is going to push is ahead of us. AK, AJ, AT, KQ (rarely he got). We are spiting only with AQ. I don't like it at all but fold is fine.

Best regards,
Antoan :pokerface:

IF villain is stealing very wide range of hands, would it better to 3bet AQo,QKo,QJo hands because these hands don't flop well and we are going fold a lot of flops , but call OOP with AQs, QKs,QJs hands, because these hands got better playability?

Hi,

This are low stacks SNGs, there is no need to do such a stuff. 3-bet only with premium hands with which you would go broke. With all the hand like AQ, AJ, KQ and etc just call. Also there is no need to 3-bet with blockers. 3-bets with Ax blockers and etc. are totally unnecessary. Its going to put you in a nasty situations and it would be much worse than to play in a small pot out of position with a hand like AJ. ABC poker is much better here!

Hi,

I was talking about on the stacks that villain played. On the higher l limits in general I agree with you but no matter on which limit we can exploit and play ABC poker against fishes. Even on mid and high stacks. ABC is much profitable against them. Also we should stay away from meta games and leveling with regs us much us we can. It is just burning money. Often we can't avoid it but always we should try do it!

Best regards,
