It's push or fold PF and I don't mind the push... His call is horrible and he got lucky.

BBV.

OK so his 3bet is the bad move.

His call is just fine. He is obligated. Isnt he getting more than 2 to 1 on the call? Had he reraised with T9s he needs to call getting more than 2 to 1.

I dont think you played it bad, I might well do the exact same, but hindsight being 20/20 this spot is a good spot to stop and go. Anything he 3bet with he is obligated to call preflop, why not smooth call and jam all flops. It prolly wouldnt matter since if he 3bets A5, he probably calls you on the flop with bottom pair too, but whatever. Don't worry bout this one too much, we play the best we can, we try to jam when we know our opponents are loose, sometimes its just really trashy card combos. KQs isnt far ahead of A5o (snicker) yeah I know his cards should be way behind your range, but point is your a dog preflop anyway. Seriously tho think about this situation and ask yourself, if I smooth call preflop, and jam all flops, do I gain more fold equity than if I three bet preflop, since any cards preflop are going to be calling getting greater than 2 to 1.

EDit - Doh just re-looked to check positions, and sure enough bad position for stop and go. He is in the big blind... oh well, I still might consider smooth calling and see if he checks the flop, since I am committed either way... shrug, I prolly play just like hero tho and push pre.
