I dont know if I am with you with the R/R PF, I normally do not do this with anything less than AKs unless you have a reason to think his raising standards are low.

Hero Folds the flop....... despite the PF R/R he still bets pot on the flop you have to give him credit for an A or better.

as played you got lucky on the turn so rest is fine

Reraise pre is meh, he did raise UTG, in this spot i cold call 80% and RR 20%. On this v dangerous flop he leads pot 3way after raising and calling a re-raise pre. You just have to give him respect and fold. So many of his holdings hit that flop harder than you.

I don't like the RR preflop. KQs isn't a monster hand.
Also, what are you trying to accomplish calling on the flop? It's a pretty easy fold at that point.

[Hard Euse]

Well the result was that he played K6 suited and hit his flushdraw on the river and i went broke.
In my opinion he wasn't even supposed to call preflop and then got lucky.

If you didn't have a specific read on this villain, you played this bad IMO. I would very rarely 3-bet KQs against utg preflop. I normally fold preflop, but if these players are so bad you want to see a flop, just flatcall.

Bad players love to play all kinds of aces, so when utg bets again, this is an easy fold on the flop. Sb is still behind you and could also have an ace.

Don't worry about whether this guy made a mistake. Just take a note and move on.

[juggler97531]

agree.
preflop raise is very bad unless you have very strong read.
flop is meh. if you call now you pot commit yourself(you don't want to call flop and fold turn AI if blank comes right?). and having Sb behind make it even worse. Give it up on the flop. You tried your best preflop, didn't make it so fold and next hand.

Dude fold preflop. Ever heard of the gap concept? KQs would be a fine hand to play from this position first in, but someone raised UTG, and you have to give him credit for a hand. I'd 3-bet here with JJ+, AK. That being said, I actually think 3bet &gt; call. and fold &gt; 3bet. If villain happened to have UTG stats of 50/40, then I would like a 3-bet. But I doubt that is the case.

Flop is an easy fold. Villain is representing at least an ace. You might have an amount of outs, but for all you know you could be at best chopping.

Turn standard of course.

Good luck (when not at my tables.)
