Seat 1: Player1 ( $1.64 USD ) - VPIP: 38, PFR: 6, 3B: 0, AF: 1.5, Hands: 32
Seat 2: Hero ( $3.71 USD ) - VPIP: 14, PFR: 11, 3B: 6, AF: 4.8, Hands: 18254

Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.01/$0.02 No-Limit Hold'em (9 handed)

Known players:
[tg]MP2$1.64:///////;MP3 (Hero)$3.71:///////;CO$0.45:///////;BU$5.31:///////;SB$1.91:///////;BB$2.29:///////;UTG1$1.93:///////;UTG2$2.45:///////;MP1$1.59:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with J:c, J:d.
3 folds, MP2 raises to $0.10, Hero raises to $0.20, 4 folds, MP2 calls $0.10.

Flop: ($0.43) 2:d, A:c, K:d (2 players)
MP2 checks, Hero bets $0.22, MP2 raises to $1.44, Hero folds, MP2 gets uncalled bet back.

Final Pot: $0.65.

Should i've c-betted a bit bigger? 3/4th pot. Or was this bet ok? I wanted to rep A or K . Villain wasn't really aggresive so wanted to play B/F

Why 3bet to 0.20 pre? Why not just call? Why not bet more?
What are you trying to do by raising to 0.20?

Flop is an easy fold, I wouldn't even bet it, I'd just give up on this flop.
Villain called a 3bet from out of position, it's highly likely he's holding an A or K or both.
Not a good spot to cbet imo.

Also getting an extra card never hurts for you, you might hit the J and stack villain.

Hey Moharith.

I would generally just flat preflop here vs a 5x UTG open.

As played we should just be checking back this flop and trying to show down.

We can probably fold turn to any bet unless it's really tiny or something.

The 2x raise is a min 3-bet since villain had a high vpip. I've noticed that against fishy players betting sizes doesn't means a lot and for me it's +ev to make the 3-bet a bit smaller. (normally i would have 3-betted the 1rst 0.06 raise to 0.16).. His raise was 5x bb.

Villains VPIP and medium aggression made me do the c-bet.

Flatting would have been better.

But did his AF gave me enough reason to c-bet?

Hey Moharith,

It's true that opponent's VPIP is high. However this is not the most relevant stat in this instance. We are more interested in his PFR which is actually very low. Combined with the fact that opponent makes it 5x we are likely playing against a pretty strong range here.

I agree with your comments about sizing though, it doesn't really matter that much what sizing we use vs a fish. However our hand is likely just not strong enough to 3bet in this case.

VPIP is notreally relevant to the cbetting decision (PFR is more important). I don't think AF is actually relevant either.
