Vegas hand 2 KQo
Bellagio 40/80. 8 handed.
The SB is a 40 ish Asian lady. She seems like a competent TAG.
I’ve only been at the table for an hour. I’ve been card dead so I have a tight image.
A loose UTG limps, folded to the SB who raises, I 3 bet KcQs, UTG calls, SB calls.
QhJh6c…….Checked to me and I bet, UTG folds, SB calls.
QhJh6c3h……Checked to me I bet, She raises, I call.
QhJh6c3hAd….She bets….Call or fold?

You now lose to her semi bluffs.
Turn is close
Ugh. I probably give up on the river. I would not fold or check back the turn and I don’t think it’s all that close.
Is 3-betting a competent TAG w/ KQo the play these days? You've stubbed your toe pretty good here but once out of the gate I think your play is fine. asmitty is right, just fold.
Yes
If they’re an actual competent tag they will be raising wide enough that we can both print off the loose player’s range EV. It’s an error to think we both can’t be profitable here, and we will realize our equity better than her.
