KQ OOP in 3b pot =(
 

Villain is 32/5/1 over 125 hands, preflop is probably a fold, just the min3b was so small. But I've just been, well donking around a little, so I decided to call. I flop TP2K here, and I'm well aware of the RIO situation, but given the way the hand was played, this is a b/f river situation right?

If you call his raise PF (which you shouldn't oop), I think you should be the one planning to donk the flop for about 6. I bet a little smaller on the river, like 1/2 pot or so. I'm having a hard time putting MP on a hand here. Maybe like JJ? Not KK or AA, not AK, possibly AQ, or KQ or JQ.

his pfr is 5%. his 3betting range is maybe QQ+. fold this oop and in position

Re: KQ OOP in 3b pot =(
 

yea, way the hand played, i was so sure villain had AK (he's a calling station, i figured he would maybe call a river bet with it). and he called me indeed and turned over AA, i was SO baffled! worse AA played ever haha.

Re: KQ OOP in 3b pot =(
 

Well your KQ is also not very well played. Fold preflop. Your equity against his 3bet range (QQ+,AK) sucks. On top of that you are OOP, which also sucks.

Re: KQ OOP in 3b pot =(
 

even though it looks so weak, just fold to that stupid raise. it just compounds problems on future streets and you end up losing a lot of money you could have saved by folding.

Re: KQ OOP in 3b pot =(
 

fold preflop all day

Against a 5%PFR, "just the minbet was so small" is you rationalizing throwing away money every time you make this play.

Re: KQ OOP in 3b pot =(
 

Fold PF. As played I donk pot-sized on flop and let go if I don't take it there.
