nl100 zoom defending 64s

Preflop 3bet is better I think. You want to call with hands that can make medium strenght hands, and play for a small-medium pot. 64s is too weak to call you can usually make bottom pairs that can't really stand barreling, but villain folds 64% vs 3bets, so this is a 3bet for me.

On the flop I'd check/raise, as a lot of hands of his BTN cbetting range could outdraw us on the turn.

Too weak for me to call, I'd 3bet.

On the flop I think this is ok to be part of a x/r range. Blocks a few of his sets and OESDs. What other x/r bluffs do you have here to go with your sets?

Hi

Preflop: I think the call is fine. I'm usually calling here, though I 3bet this sometimes. I think in general there are many worse hands which you can use to 3b with instead and this should play well enough in a single-raised pot and if you play postflop well you should end up losing less than the 1bb you would have otherwise lost if you just folded preflop.

Flop: Donking would be terrible - You should never have a donkbetting range here. C/F is obviously too weak and you shouldn't be playing this hand preflop if you are folding here. So that leaves you with C/R vs C/C. Standard line is to c/c and while it's true that you may give villain his 6 outer vs you, I just think that all your other options here aren't going to be any better.

Basically if your ranges are balanced, and you have a solid game plan, c/c here wouldn't necessarily mean that you get completely destroyed postflop.
