Then you whip out your cock and sharpen that instead and yell, "Ha ha, bitches, you never saw that coming!" Well, no, they didn't. But you still have a dull pencil and bleeding dick.

Is flatting the small preflop 3bet the best idea? By doing so, we're certain the button will call also and now we're playing KK 3 handed not in position.Just a personal preference, I'd repop it again pre to somewhere around $7.50 and try to get the button out and calling if BB shoves. It might be tardy, but I'm not folding KK preflop for 110ish BB's.

he isnt 3 betting light imo. but if we pop the 4 bet he is getting it in flipping, chop, or better like everytime. by flatting i think his stack off range on the flop os wider then his stack off range preflop bc he can hi say his 10 of his a10 suited and get it in, the J of his AJ or KJ and get coolered more.

For me 4-betting is largely based on image. If the table thinks I am a nit, or if I have folded to 3-bets a lot, I am calling. If I have 4-bet this guy already I am 4-betting. As it is I call. Part of the thinking is that if the BB does have some retarded draw or AJ, I want to win 2 BI's when the BTN idiot can't fold J8 getting "4:1".

yes. and we want value. his stack off range postflop is much bigger then preflop.

You might be right. I'm saying KK in position against a single opponent is more profitable than 3 handed OOP.I also think his stack off range is probably smaller with an additional hand seeing the flop.

What sort of hands can KK be chopping with? Aside from the other KK. What sort of hands can KK be flipping against?

yeah, chopping? I just don't think it's hit you that we have KK and not AK or QQI hope he ISN'T 3-betting light. I want to felt KK pf. It's not as if the only hand people 3-bet for value pf is AA.

because there's already a bunch of $ in the pot and two players consequently seem very interested

Yah but he's made the flop foldable now, whereas if he just calls the flop bet, he can pretty much make the turn or river unfoldable.

All-in, on the flop.I understand your reasoning for flatting but you cna't get scared off in these spots. KK is stronger than the hands the villain is going to be putting you on. I don't thing villain is good judging by his bet sizing so I would expect to be up against some very weak hands.Knowing his 3-bet tendancys is a def help
