Default 3-handed 66

What are you doing preflop? Reraise or call?
Easy flop fold?

Villian was a TAG, had no special read.

I'm re-raising this. You have good equity against a button stealer and you need some fold equity on the turn as villain probably has at least 6 outs against you (assuming you're ahead).

Re-raise preflop for sure and bet flop! Rest of the hand is up to style of your opponent and your read! Way you've played is weak!

PF is a tweener for me. I always 3-ball 77 and mostly just call 55.

The thing with lower pp's is that when hero 3-bets preflop he often commits himself to SD and when he does SD this hand he is a dog on most boards.

Against a loose and tricky player I think that 3-betting preflop sets you up for some really tough spots in a bloated pot later in the hand.

But against a straightforward not too creative TAGgish guy I think you can go ahead and 3-ball this as well as 55.

The problem with calling preflop however is when you c/f these flops. You are giving up tons of value but the hand is just so difficult to play if you want to continue.

3bet preflop, lead the flop and you can probably safely fold if he raises then.

I'm ok with preflop, but i usually 3bet.

As played I think you need to at least call right? he has a huge range here...
