Re: flop 2PairTK in 3-bet pot
 

I might just call pre-flop. 5 handed though so his UTG range is prolly a little looser than normal so 3betting is probably also fine.

I'm prolly just calling the flop though and risking that he has hearts so that I don't make him fold 99-JJ or whatever he has if it's a poor bluff.


Raising flop and shoving when he checks turn could be alright IMO.

I agree with Lego only I would 3-bet this everytime 5-handed.
