ok i just raised TT in cutoff i think, 6 max game. doughnutz 3 bets K8o out of the big blind, i cap it. naturally it comes K high of course, but let's not talk about that. the more important question: is his preflop 3 bet ever correct in a million years? why would someone put 3 bets in out of position with an offsuit king and an eight. can someone please talk about this? thanks.

One time playing 75 live Roc 3bet my CO open from the BB with K8o. He certainly surprised me at showdown when I saw it because I didn't think he could have that in his range. I thought it was an awful play, but Roc has won like all of my money so I obviously just don't know anything about poker. Clearly it's just an incredibly complicated play that I'll never understand.

Maybe because he knows you are locking him into a specific range of hands early and staying there. Good players at higher limits figure out and capitalize on these things. It's also why hand ranges are a poor concept when you are playing against excellent players.

Well I already knew he was capable of randomly 3betting suited connectors there and I called him down with like A9 in this hand so I don't really see the benefit of adding crap like K8o.
