Poker Stars, $0.25/$0.50 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players

SB: $52.25 (104.5 bb)
BB: $57.79 (115.6 bb)
UTG: $50 (100 bb)
MP: $318.71 (637.4 bb)
CO: $63.79 (127.6 bb)
Hero (BTN): $50 (100 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with J♠ J♥
UTG raises to $1.50, MP folds, CO calls $1.50, Hero calls $1.50, 2 folds

Flop: ($5.25) 4♠ J♦ A♦ (3 players)
UTG bets $3.50, CO folds, Hero ???

UTG regular. 25/20/7, 18k hands.

OR UTG 18%;

cbet 51%

WTSD 28%

CO incline to regular. 28/24, 900 hands.

PF flat/SQ ???

Flop: I think a regular cbet here with a strong range as a FD, AQ,AK, 2 pair, set.

I prefer raise for protection and value vs FD,AK,AQ,44, 2 pair . Also, I think raise is good because turn may come killing action cards as a :diamond:.

Conversely, raise is not good because villain may fold a lot of time hands as AQ,AK ...

What do you think about PF/flop ???

thanks.

Hi,

Since he is so loose I would likely 3-bet pre-flop for value. He likely have to defend wider range of hands and unless he 4-bets a lot I would prefer getting more money in with best hand.
Postflop raise is ofcourse fine, but question is how many hands would you really raise on AJ4s board. If your raising range have broadway flushdraws, then balancing up with set seems better option than just calling and tha would allow him to get all-in with 44 before board gets more scarier.

best regards,

Pre flop, 3bet/push ?

Depends how light he would 4-bet me.
My usual line would be 3-bet/fold, since I don´t expect him 4-betting light, rather he would call worse hands pre-flop getting good pot odds in mutliway pot.
If he is 4-bet happy then 3-bet/shove seems the best line, since he should use enough AT type hands to represent AA and often would get all-in AK and sometimes TT.

best regards,
