UTG+1 is AGGRO but does not 4-bet very often.


UTG+1 $45.60. (37/20/8)
Button $99.05. (26/16/6)
Hero $49.50

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is BB with :a [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] :j [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] :6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] :a [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG folds, UTG+1 raises to $1.75, CO folds, Button raises to $6, SB folds, Hero calls, UTG+1 calls.

Flop: :9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] :5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] :k [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($18.25, 3 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, Button bets $13, Hero?

4-bet preflop.

As played you're in a sick spot. Any reads on button and what kind of hands he 3-bets? I think I'd probably fold readless, since I think KKxx is a sizeable part of his range and has you crushed, not to mention you still have to worry about UTG+1 left to act behind you.

With your stack you should reraise preflop (You can commit 40% of your stack) and push all in on that flop.

I would consider this a missed hand (especially with UTG+1 still in) and fold. I've been playing pretty conservatively, lately, though. I could see an argument for pushing, though.

You aren't far behind a pair+straight draw, so a push could force out UTG+1 unless he's really strong, and it could also force the button off of the pair+straight draw if he doesn't feel like gambling and sees you as nitty. And if you are behind, you have 2 and maybe .5 outs. So, you could embrace variance and push. I don't know how often Button has two pair+ here, though, which he probably won't fold.

4-bet PF LDO. Why wouldn't you want to get 40% of your stack in with AA against an aggro button 3-bettor?
