Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

$0.25/$0.5 No-Limit Hold'em (9 handed)

Known players:
[tg]CO(Hero)$38.05:///////;BU$48.25:///////;SB$20.95:///////;BB$49.10:///////;UTG1$10.50:///////;UTG2$8.35:///////;MP1$50.80:///////;MP2$50.75:///////;MP3$90.75:///////;[/tg]
Preflop: Hero is CO with 8:d, 9:d.
5 folds, Hero raises to $1.5, BU calls $1.50, 2 folds.

Flop: ($3.75) J:s, 6:c, 8:h (2 players)
Hero bets $2.50, BU raises to $6, Hero raises to $10, BU calls $4.00.

Turn: ($23.75) 4:c (2 players)
Hero bets $9.00, BU folds, Hero gets uncalled bet back.

Final Pot: $23.75.

Results follow:

Hero shows a pair of eights (8:d 9:d)
Hero wins with a pair of eights (8:d 9:d).

i know, reload to full stack.

but what do you think of this? i thought he was squeezing me and that if i 3-bet him and show strength on the turn (if it is not a scary card) i could take this down... bear in mind that i was playing pretty tight in that session although i dont really expect people to generally notice.

was it -ev?

this is very opponent dependent

if you think he doesnt have it than call the 3bet and lead out turn
