Pacific Poker - €0.05 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3

SB: €0.53 (10.6 bb)
BB: €2.00 (40 bb)
UTG: €8.67 (173.4 bb)
Hero (MP): €5.49 (109.8 bb)
CO: €3.95 (79 bb)
BTN: €4.32 (86.4 bb)

SB posts €0.02, BB posts €0.05

Pre Flop: (pot: €0.07) Hero has Q♣: K♣:
fold, Hero raises to €0.15, CO calls €0.15, fold, SB calls €0.13, BB raises to €0.45, Hero calls €0.30, CO calls €0.30, SB raises to €0.53 and is all-in, BB calls €0.08, Hero calls €0.08, CO calls €0.08

Flop: (€2.12, 4 players) Q♥: 6♣: K♠:
BB bets €0.69, Hero raises to €4.96 and is all-in

On the flop my intention was isolate against BB (no stats), since my mini-raise was enough to put him all-in.
Of course it generates fold equity against CO, his stats are 26/18 and AF of 1.7, but he could also call with AK,for example.
What do you think about this line? All-in was too greedy?

Thanks

Against a mid stack a shove isn't to bad on flop. Check/call to let him do the dirty work on turn is a decent option as well. I don't think you need to protect your hand against JT. I doubt he would bet that with 1 all-inn already.

Cheers,

I agree with SDK that both options on flop are possible. But on the flop you can basically exclude BB from the play because he will pay the rest anyway and you could focus on how to get extra value from CO. And that is by calling. He shouldnt have anything in his range that you beat and what he would call after you shove. I can imagine him having hands like KJs or maybe even KTs after that weird preflop action which will pay a street or two. I dont see him having AK to often. Hed probably 3bet pre. So I like calling flop a little more.

Is a call pre-flop the correct play against a 3-bet from BB with an effective stack of 40bb? His pre-flop 3-betting range into this table is very strong and has KQ in poor spot. I like fold pre-flop, This is obv a good flop for KQs but I would let go pre-flop

Preflop ok your flat here.
Flop I call only because i don't that other players fold, there are few draw, few scary card and when you shove you can induce to fold Kx or JTs

Pretty difficult for Co to have AK since you have a K and there’s one on the board, narrowing the leftover AK possible combos to 8 total. There’s no FD and only draw with decent equity is JTs. I would flat call the flop, anything but an Ace would be pretty good turn card
