im doing this by head AND i just got out of bed, so my answer will probely wrong, but i give it a shot.

preflop there is $6.25 in the pot.
u have 2p but there is a flushdraw so a $4.50 bet is to small, u must protect ur hand a little more. a bet just under potsize would be better.
after the flop bet and raise the pot is $22.70, u have to pay $7.50 to see if u hit a J or T. a little more then 3:1. since there are 4 cards out there that will make u happy, mathematicly u should fold.

there are a lot of hands he can have. since i dont have any stats of CO i cant consider the possibility of him having a draw. on this board he would not slowplay a set and even ATc comes into my mind. i have never played shorthanded. isnt ATs a raise from the CO?


imo on the flop against his hand range you are only behind to a set of 3s and you are 50% vs a OESD/Flush draw. I would rereraise him especially if my stats said he is rather loose and aggresive.


too bad i dont got any PT stats on him so im gonna assume hes just a average player on NL50. hand range assigned to him:

33, JJ, TT, QQ+, AcXc, 98, KQ, Q9, AJ, JT

i played around with pokerstove and got this

Board: 3c Jc Td
Dead:

equity win tie pots won pots tied
Hand 0: 64.908% 62.64% 02.27% 53950 1955.00 { JhTh }
Hand 1: 35.092% 32.82% 02.27% 28270 1955.00 { QQ+, JdJs, TdTs, 3d3h, 3d3s, 3h3s, AcKc, AcQc, AdJd, AsJs, AcTc, Ac9c, Ac8c, KQs, Q9s, JTs, 98s, AcJd, AcJs, AdJs, AhJd, AhJs, AsJd, KQo, Q9o, JTo, 98o }

so i am favourite vs his range, reraising = right play?

yes, reraising is the right play. you can actually push it on the flop or against an very aggressive player, call the flop and wait until he fires the turn again and then push assuming there will be a blank on the turn. with a card completing the flushdraw you should probably just call.

Wouldn't even a half pot size bet do it against a flushdraw? 4 to 1 pot odds against 5 to 1 draw. 3/4 of the pot should be fine here as he did.
