Default Blind battle turn semibluff

Villain seems kind of loose so far but no real reads.

Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (5 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Preflop: Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB 3-bets</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (6 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (4 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>

What's the point though? Weigh it out man - better hands that are folding vs. better hands that aren't folding.. I would just call the turn and get max value when I hit one of my 34976 outs on the river.

Getting called and then missing sucks..
Getting 3bet sucks..

One of those two scenarios will be the case 95% of the time.

With no read, I think just calling the 3bet preflop is fine.

I check/call flop/turn and fold river UI.

A reasonable player will 3bet/defend his BB with a range of hands of which you beat close to none but have plenty of outs to draw out on.

this is a pretty standard play, which makes it suck more than it used to. everyone does this now, and thus everyone knows you like to have 2 big cards with one [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. unless your opponent is a total monkey, I don't like it - unless of course you like to spew and will cap it if he 3bets you.

not a big fan. most people arent going to fold AK/AQ here, so you're basically targeting bad aces with no heart.
