He had an overpair and gutshot, he loved his 4 extra outs. But you're right, how can he think he's ahead when you 3-bet PF and raise him on the flop?

I play middle pairs much more cautiosly after being 3-bet PF, and would probaby c/f most flops. If I bet out and got raised, then I'd also have to fold, obv.

please dont tell me you are only calling for set value? I think it is not profitable to call 3-bets with pp with 100bb stacks only for set value. Have to gamble sometimes.

Ya, I set mine way too much. This a big leak in my game and I need to learn to play medium and small pocket pairs better. Would c/ring be a good line here sometimes?

Really? Seems like even against a light 3 bettor, you're only ever going to be SA/WB when you get action.

He's not talking about anybody folding though, he's talking about stacking off on this flop with TT.

there isn;t much else to do with TT here. we are OOP, i hate c/c, then ending with a tricky decision if a JQK or A hit, or convincing ourselves to fold to a blank when he keeps betting.

we can't c/f the flop with an overpair, so c/r is the only move. we are only a 3/1 dog if he has JJ, QQ, KK or AA anyway, and we are a favorite over 99

when i am OOP in 3bet pots w/o the betting lead i am pretty much always c/f or c/r
