Did I spew chips here or just a bad spot?

Button over 50 hands was playing 45% of the flops and raising preflop 27%

Decided this was a good time to 3 bet preflop giving the situation and hand.

Figured I had to call the allin after betting the flop bc his ranged included ak, aq, aj, kq, etc....

If he had a big pair....I figured I had some outs and backdoor outs also....

i hardly ever 3bet light OOP, because it sucks being OOP in spots like this. having said that, it isn't that bad really. i would call his shove here with top pair. i think you have the correct odds against his range. you only need 27% equity. here is a reasonable range with AKs (not hearts) as a few bluff outs.

with this range it is a call just about. i think villain looks spewey enough to do this with a much wider range

why did you feel this was a good time for a 3-bet pre-flop?

i think it sucks because he's likely not folding, and you're building a pot out of position against an erratic player.

Thats what I figured....didnt like calling...more off a call n pray.....but I thought mathematically...it was correct.....

The button was out of control and figured it was time to take advantage of it.....

[KingGordy]

Don't like, this is not the type of opponent to be doing this against. A guy with these stats is pretty much always going to call your 3 bet, so you end up in a big pot OOP with 7 high against a guy who doesn't like to fold. Save these type of 3 bets for nits.

3 bet pf is fine but his calling range doesnt shrink in poss, like yours should oop. did you beat 50 and 25nl?

link please to any post you have made where you have said something nice/constructive. PF 3bet is actually very marginal IMO

[jennaecks]

after continuation bet on the flop......mathematically i had to call the all in I was trying to address....

But after posting and reading.....I see I could have made a better play with a better hand....
