2nd pair in 3! pot

I would 3b bigger, especially from BB; I make it 75. I check flop with plans to call 1/2 pot or smaller

On two tone double broadway flop I am generally checking a lot out of position but betting larger with more polarized raise. AJ without a spade falls squarely in my check call flop line and re-evaluate turn based off sizing etc. I am assuming if he opens wide he may also stab wide so I am not folding to single bet unless he over bets pot.

I actually cbet 60. I didn't like the wet board, but this is good my range.

Villain shoved. Do I have odds to call? I have some equity against a K and could be a favorite against a draw. He shoved knowing I could snap it off with AA/KK/AK/JJ.

I don't think I am playing well after 3-betting light.

I agree it is good for your range but I also think this is good board for V range. If you think he is calling your 3b pretty light with a lot of low PP, Axs and SCs then I can get behind a range bet for smaller size. Also if he never slow plays AA/KK IP and always 4b you with those holdings. However, if his range is more condensed than that I may play more defensively than solver (which I believe would 3b range mostly small for HJ vs BB for solver ranges).

I personally would fold without BD equity. I can see the case since you block his AK, KK, JJ and KJ combos and unblock his spade draws. I just don’t think I can find the call against most $1/3 blasting all-in in 3b pot.

Disclaimer: I am a recreational and not even sure if I am long term winner.

Call pre-flop
I’m not much of a raiser from the bb
Much more content to start on defense OOP.
I don’t think you need the lead here

You bloated the pot unnecessarily, but I don’t think you’re pot committed. I just don’t see a plan with the bet-sizing

You definitely needed more stack depth to blow up the pot like your first two bets. There’s a time to be overly aggressive, but this is not the situation.

Unless you think that villain put all his money in with worse than a pair of jacks, I would fold

He’s an 80% favorite with a king, in case you’re thinking about gambling

There is a question of pot odds and whether he has a draw. Is he shoving a K when I could have AA/KK/AK? He could also maybe have KJ or a set in which I am in real trouble. However, at this point the 20% or so isn't that far behind pot odds and I am maybe ahead of a draw.

Result was I folded and thought it was maybe misplayed at every decision point.

Pre has got to be wrong especially vs this size open.

Do you really think villain care you have aa/kk/ak when he takes this line?

We only need about 30% equity to break even. I think we should have enough if villain is shipping every draw he has.
There aren't much sets besides 77. We are also huge dog vs AA/AK that he has slowplayed.
Still its hard to imagine he has much value hands taking this line. When he can flat and jam most turns.

I think we have to call it off after we cbet.

The sizing was standard for him, although he occasionally opened smaller. He was opening really wide, which is partly why I 3!.

I thought afterwards that he had a draw often enough and I had to call down the shove with pot odds.

In the end, do we really have to get into it OOP versus a decent player versus 5x sizing at only 100bb stacks? Prolly not? Kinda doubt flatting is going to be profitable in this spot. If we're going to 3bet, then we better know what we're doing postflop; otherwise it is perfectly fine to pass and wait for a spot that we're more comfortable with (noting I'm very uncomfortable in this postflop spot myself and do not have a solid handle on things at all).

Preflop is OK although calling is fine and may be better? Flop feels like you should do a lot of checking. As played it feels close, not an instafold, there can be a lot of combo draws here but ultimately you only have a bluffcatcher and most of the draws have decent equity so you can probably fold. Don't think any action is terrible although maybe not optimal?
