Fold or push???

why not raise preflop? The only arguement I see is that you don't want to define your hand. I'd like that line more if you had AA. I prefer reraising with KK because the button is obviously calling and you're doing a 3 way pot. The button likely has low PP and is getting great implied odds to fish here which is why you should have reraised preflop. As played, I think I push here. You're good more often than you're not. It's not the greatest flop for you but I still think that you can't fold here at 50NL. I push, unless of course I have a strong read. Do we have a read here?

No reads really. And yes, I didn't reraise so as not to define my hand. That and I had position on the reraiser. If I didn't, then I would have repopped.

I'd like to reraise here with KK preflop where we likely have the best hand.

Now we're in a tough spot, because he might have 1010, QQ or AA. AQ is well within this range though. His minimum raise is kind of suspect. I think I'm pushing here though. Maybe you really disguised your KK well and he feels his AQ is good here.

Just calling the PF re-raise is a mistake. Push it with KK.

Fold. He 3 bet and then min check raised Q10x flop. This is QQ/AA a LOT. Any other pocket pair makes no sense (besides maybe 1010) and I really dont see AK doing this unless it is maybe AKdd in which he ha a massive draw.

Also, since button is probably gonna call after we call 3 bet, I like 4 betting to try and get pot HU.

FPS.

My favorite

I agree with this.

Yeah, THIS is the reason to reraise preflop. You don't wanna play 3 handed if you don't have to. Get the pot heads up and you'll have easier decisions.

Very good reasoning on why to repop preflop. Will do in the future.

Lavitz pretty much pins how I felt about this hand. AA and QQ are very likely to play their hand like this preflop and post. I would think Ad Kd would have check raised me for at least the pot, hoping to end it there but still has a boatload of outs. I also find it hard to believe that AQ 3-bets preflop OOP.

So that really leaves me with AA/QQ, and maaaaybe TT. Although I'm discounting TT because the guy hadn't shown many signs of aggression and I'm still seeing very few players repopping PF with anything less than JJ.

Unfortunately I decided to look him up. I pushed...he called...and won with a set of biotches. I know thinking can be very results oriented, but looking back on it now I have a hard time feeling you're ahead often enough to stack off here for it to be a +ev play.

Definitely agree with this. What do you beat at this point? AQ/JJ is pretty much all you beat. AQ very rarely reraises preflop and Stars and JJ isn't unlikely to check/raise this board. Check/raising is very strong here. This is almost always AA or QQ. I don't think TT reraises this preflop OOP.
