Hi,
Here on ~18bb its little loose OR but I layed rather tight table wasnt aggro or smth.
MP2 is a Supernova, so I assume he will 3b/call here with ~99+, AQ+.
I guess if its fold to me its easy fold, but after SB (FISH) calls we got great odds and our hand flops well, so call?
As played, I like donk-ship vs x/jam to dont get MP chance to x.back or smth.

Hi,
Actually I'd prefer to OR hands like KTo UTG than QJs just because of that.
When you are 3beted bf you are commited to the pot but w/ hands like KTo you can fold easily bec of the playablility post...
So here i'd prefere to fold pre and use hand w/ bad playability and good blocker like : Ax, BW (offsuited), Kx

Hi all,

I think QJ has more blockers than random Ax, and of course vs preflop slowplays and preflop BB defends we have better equity with QJs. So generally: NH/WP. Definitely fold to the 3bet if SB hasn't put 1200 of dead money in.
