Hey sirildion!

Just 2 questions that should initalize your thought process

1, would you ever shove a toppair kind of hand or stronger hand?
2, which worse hands should call this shove?

Greets,

1. I certainly would play it the same is I had hit
2. flushdraws probably call and probably get some better hands to fold also.

The problem I have with this hand after I make the 3 bet I don't see that great lines:

1. c/f on the flop seems a bit to weak to me
2. b/f on the flop just feels like not a great plan either since then I invested most of my stack already then.
3. AI think I have the best FE here since I probably get him to fold weaker hands then top pair.
4. 3b a bit smaller in this spot and the c-bet a bit smaller. So if I have to give up after the flop I still have a decent stack left seems like on other good option
5. just call preflop and reevaluate on the flop. could be fine although I would not be found to play oop without initiative.
6. openshove pre. seems a bit to much for a shove

which better hands are folding?
please tell me one…

55 is the only hand that is prob. folding. 66+ are normally calling!

fds are the only hands that can call and that you have beat, but they have great equity against you…

imo 3bet smaller pre -> to 550 and b/f this flop small (1/3 pot or something like that) If you get raised you can easy fold normally! Against very agressive opponents you could even think about ch/c depending the betsize!

that would be my line. But shove flop is not a good line, because there are no worse hands calling and you don't get better hands to fold…

Greets,
