UTG 27 hands 36/28 , UTG 0/1 hands
SB 170 hands 30/23 , call steal from SB 1/8 hands (this particular hand)
I decide to flat KK from CO for 2 main reasons
- Balance my defend range with some of the top range as well
- Hope for squeeze from SB who seems aggro with 30/23 and 3 bet total 9.5 on 170 hands
I would assign UTG standard range of most PPs (55+), A10s+,AJo+,KQo,KJs,QJs,J10s.
Since it is readless I would always assume tighter open then say hands with 10xs and even more suited connectors like 109s,98s,87s etc
SB overcalls/flats in those spots some sort of capped range. I would think here with big stack that he will flat all PPs for set minning as well as connectors and BDWS for immplied odds. I feel that top of the range and Ax type of hands he would 3 squeeze here as he seems more aggro.
Flop is 6h9c7h
There is now in UTGs range following hands that he c bets:
Overpairs (1010-AA) total 25 combos (excluding my KK)
2 overs and FD (A10s,AJs,AQs = 3 combos)
2 overs with BDFD (AJo AQo AKo = 6 + 6 + 2 = 8 combos)
Sets 9 combos
Since this is multi way hand I don't expect him to c bet bluf in those spots so he c bets total 45 combos.
SB range will c/raise in those spots something like:
Sets 9 combos
2 overs and FD but with J10s (1 combo) Q10s(1 combo) and I don't expect many Ah10h AhJh AhQh as I would expect him to squezze those , if not it is additional 3 combos.
For bluff c/raise or some sort of semi value would be 6 combos of 88 or 1010 another 6 combos (total 12)
So total c/raise range here is 14 + 12 = 26 combos
I am on top of my bluff catch range so I decided to call flop and fold to turns that complete heart FD as well as SDs with 5, 8, or 10 comming out.
I expect UTG to call c/raise from SB with some sort of draw or weaker overpair with one heart for bd or even bdsd.
When opponent double barells in multi way I never expect him to have anything less than a set or completed straight here.
Questions:
Was my thinking process correct here?
If not how would you have played differently this hand?
Isn't there to many outs for opponents on turn and should I therefore consider raising UTGs bet flop?
If I do raise UTG's c bet I would assume calling 3 bet shove is totally out of question as I would not expect anything less then sets here? If they 3 bet shove overpairs that I have crushed then I have far easier call, even easier if they add Axs combos for overs and FD.
How do we adjust here if we are dealing with 100bb stacks compared to 40-50bb stacks?
Appreciate all your responses!
