One of the first hands at the table, so no reads on villains
PokerStars 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (10 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums) Preflop: Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+2 raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Hero calls, UTG+1 calls. Flop: (8.40 SB) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+2 bets</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+2 3-bets</font>, MP3 folds, <font color="#CC3333">Hero caps</font>, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls. Here I assume I'm ahead and go for a c/r. I cap this because UTG+2 could easily 3-bet the flop with TPTK or overpair. Turn: (10.70 BB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises</font> a half BB and is all-in , <font color="#CC3333">UTG+2 raises</font> to the other half, Hero ?. UTG+2 still raising worries me. I think he could have a set but TPTK or overpair are still possible so I think I should call down. Is it right to call this down or should I consider 3-betting the turn? |

Just call down and hope that the river isn't an A, 7, or 5

I think this is close, but there are only 2 combinations of KK and JJ that your opponent could have that beat you.
I think that I would 3-bet the turn and call down to a cap. |

Think of what you're beating and what you're losing to and figure out how likely each is.
you're losing to KK(on combo) JJ(one combo) and 77(three combos), tied w/ KJ (4ways), beating K7(unlikely to be raised pf same for J7) AA(6ways) and AK(16ways). Because this is a first few hands, I might raise, thinking AK is the most likely holding followed by AA, both of which you beat, and against an unknown most .25/.50 players (who aren't extremely passive) will play TPTK, or AA as an overpair aggressively if the only things that can beat them are 2pair or a set. I like the raise here and if you get capped check calling the river. |

Pretty easy 3-bet to me. AK, AA, and even KQ/QJ are more possible hands than 55 or 77. 77 would be the hand I'm most worried about, but again, I think UTG+2 is going to flip over AK AA KQ QJ KJ more times (obviously) than 77 which makes your 3-bet ok. If it's capped, just check/call the river.

Without reads I would call down from the turn raise. If you had a read he is overly aggressive wtih top pair or he's a maniac I'd 3 bet it. |

Since you have a jack and king, I would 3bet, hoping villain is overplaying AK/AA.
