Hero bets $4.40, UTG folds
Almost no info on villains, UTG is 13/9 in 45 hands and MP is 52/24 in 25 hands (fish).
Decided to 3bet pre as a bluff. Should be okay with blockers to put a lot of pressure on UTG as well MP. Was thinking if I should maybe just call to keep the fish in, but I don't think AJo plays well enough 3way to make that a really viable option, so I decided to 3bet instead.
When just UTG calls and I have pretty much no equity, I decided to just give up on the flop. When he checks back though, I think I can pick it up very often with two barrels, especially on this turn card. It's going to be tough for him to call twice with just a pair, and there's a good chance he'll just fold straight away on the turn.
So my plan was to bet twice, unless the river would be another spade.
Also I don't like my sizing, should probably be something like $3.80-$4?
