KJs in the BB facing three players

1/2. 280 effective. V1 and V2 are calling stations. V3 is terrible player. He bet big on the turn with middle pair.

V1 and V2 limp. V3 opens to 10. Hero in sb with KsJs?

If V1 & V2 are the type of calling stations that L/C a 3! then I'm folding. We are OOP with a hand that needs to see cards with at least one player that will not allow us to realize equity (V3). My calling range from the SB at 1/2 is TT-, A5s-. Otherwise it's 3! or fold.


What position is V3?

Personally, I really like 3betting this spot. The $10 open over two limps is usually a weak "pot juicer" (most players size up over the limpers) so you have more fold equity than usual. I also tend to think that this range is lots of small-to-medium pocket pairs and suited cards (juicing the pot up in case they hit their miracle flop) so you have decent clarity when called. On top of that, you have a hand that really doesn't mind 3bet-folding versus 4b.

I would make it $50.


3! is probably best, but call is probably a little better than fold.


...3-bets to 45


Seems like a no brainer 3b/fold to $35-$40 and c-bet any flop that is decent for your range like A or K high.

Check raise any draws or J high flops. Check fold a flop like 654 or 976

Of course other actions could change this - but this is the basic level thinking of this hand.


Oops. I wrote the hand history incorrectly. I never played this hand. Sorry, everyone.

AP, standard 3bet to 50.

See repost for a better hand.
