Im translating this to, " this is a tough one jordie" Im ok with that.

Im a NL newbie, but I think I can find a fold to this shove. BB 3-bet OOP Pre-flop...to me this is showing great strength.......Big pair to me. King flops and he's not worried. AA? I dont know, but I think I can get away from this.

I am a limit player trying to make the transition and learn the game so take my comments with a grain of salt. I play 2/4 limit and have started donking the NL micros as a precursor to moving from limit to NL.

EDIT: I just did the math and you have no choice but to call after your $30 raise........I think your beat, but you are probably priced into this pot. If my math is right arent u getting 4-1 here?

[LMAO]

I think this is unavoidable without a read... to do anything esle you might as well have folded pf.

[antneye]

Since he leaves himself no choice but to call an all in after his $30 raise.....wouldn't it be better to just shove the flop instead of the $30 raise?

[VPIP100]

Preflop.. meh, I think shoving is not good, 4-betting and fold to a shove neither so I guess this is fine.

You cant fold on the flop, so I think without reads that hes a total nit I play the same.

lol@UTG

What do you put villain on that you beat?

[Jouster777]

I probably end up taking OP's line.

However, after looking at it I think a flop check, push turn may be better. UTG is committed and a nonfactor. BTN is yet to act...if he pushes flop I think we can fold and we are better off to have him call flop than to fold it. Flop is dry so this is relatively safe. This line gets another bet out of BB when he would fold to our flop RR and makes BTN call more often on the flop. OTOH, I don't see BB betting the turn much with hands we beat...but still probably adds to EV.
