combo draw vs good reg

the 3bet line would look like
110-350-1000 with the pot being 140
Meaning that i put 1800$ with my 3bet in to win 500$ direct.

If the pot would have been 180$:
150-480-1200/shove
There`s a diference of 150 dead $.

There is a difference, but that doesnt mean that you shouldnt do it.

I thought everyone learned not to be the only person calling a raise from the sb with suited cards, oh there connecting...So the basics, your calling a raise OOP against a MP raiser. Your hand 45s, so you no high card strength. Your basically looking to hit a flush draw or straight draw. So your calling a raise OOP to potentially draw to a straight or a flush?
Wow, your hit your flush draw, and your first idea is to bet out for a little more than 1/2 the pot? Suprise, you get reraised and you call...strong. You didn't hit your flush on the turn, but you also picked up a gut shot straight draw. You check, villian put in a large bet and prices you out of a +ev call. hmmmm.

So what you could do better.
1. Fold your hand preflop.
2. Reraised preflop.
3. Check raise the flop large (committing yourself).
4. Check the flop and evalute bet size.

Preflop is fine.

3-betting light isn't the only way to exploit loose opens, nor is it necessarily the best one. The only reason many people adhere to the "3-bet or fold" philosophy is because it's ridic. simple and fairly effective against non-adapting opponents (everyone plays the same, more or less).

People wonder why recallme is winning at these stakes. What if he accidentally stumbled across a counterstrategy that enables him to hold his own among those with "superior" analytical skills?

he folds if he has air, which seems possible

Guys, stop flaming recallme, I like his threads!
He plays differently from the majority of winning players at these stakes which does not necessarily mean that he plays worse!

I am def. not among the best HSNl, but i think i could be a 5BB/100 winner.
I have no superior skills, but i think Dean made a good point: There are more ways to play a hand profitable.

If i 3bet 45s here i have to cbet, which costs me a lot.
I am calling with AT or Kj hee sometimes, too.
Just mixing it up here.

This hand really went terrible.
Honestyl b/3bet here is idiotic imho, but after analyzing i could see the possibility of c/r/4bet.

I doubt that he has lots of air here, but on the other side there aren`t that mayn hands he can comfortabley call with.
