Hero (SB): $5 (100 bb)
BB: $5.44 (108.8 bb)
UTG: $5.67 (113.4 bb)
MP: $5.54 (110.8 bb)
CO: $2.65 (53 bb)
BTN: $3.48 (69.6 bb)

Preflop: Hero is SB with J J
UTG calls $0.05, MP raises to $0.20, 2 folds, Hero raises to $0.65, BB folds, UTG calls $0.60, MP folds

Flop: ($1.55) 5 2 3 (2 players)
Hero bets $0.70, UTG calls $0.70

Turn: ($2.95) 8 (2 players)
Hero bets $3.65 and is all-in, UTG calls $3.65

River: ($10.25) 9 (2 players, 1 is all-in)

Results:

Spoiler

$10.25 pot ($0.43 rake)
Final Board: 5 2 3 8 9
Hero showed J J and lost (-$5 net)
UTG showed K K and won $9.82 ($4.82 net)

I have these spots often last days where we got like 1.5x the pot in our stack, and the board looks somewhat drawy to me to have worse just call here. I mean I do that as a value line but perhaps my thinking here is flawed.

Please fixme

Hi.

Preflop: I don't like the 3bet here
1. It may be too thin vs MP's range. Typical MP open raising ranges are at 15-17%. I would imagine that his iso raising range is even tighter at around 10%. I don't like the idea of 3-bet/folding JJ here.
2. You allow the fish to enter the hand with a wide range of hands

Just call, it's far superior to 3-betting

Postflop: I think it's ok, His limp-call 3b range would def contain some slowplays for sure but I think he has some mid pairs as well.

Assuming he calls the Turn push with 88-TT, QQ, and some AK, I think you have an ok shove.
