I 3bet out of the blinds and am a lil confused

[HoldEmNewby]

been running bad hence the question i think both are an easy stack off

[Montezuma21]

GRUNCH:

I push in hand 1 but it's very close. i think he does this with Jx and sometimes as a bluff.

Hand 2 i think i C-C to give him a chance to bluff and for value on the river if it's checked through.

[RUDIKULOUS]

Both hands i bet less on the flop fwiw. You can accomplish all the same things with a $16 bet.

[br.bm]

what about calling in hand 1) and c/r turn or shove river?
this way we give him a chance to bluff the turn

How much % of unknown villians range is air here?

[centgas]

Hand 1 is closer than people think, he will show up with QQ and KK a lot here.

[nazahl]

hand 1 is a tough spot.

hand 2 is easy, pause for a sec and shove - make it look like AK so he calls looks u up light. betting anything less looks like a made hand and you'll only get action if youre beat.

my suggestion - don't insta 3bet unknowns preflop since u get put in tough spots postflop. just play small pot poker until you know what youre dealing with

[br.bm]

yes, if I were BU I's seldom 4b QQ+

[BobboFitos]

id go all in and not think twice
