3-bet calling range

The logical bluffs are really just KQc and KJc. I would probably have cbet/given up to avoid opening the door to being bluffed out by an aggro player.īut as played I think you have to fold on the turn to a shove. It’s worth pointing out this was a 4 handed table, so we should be expecting looser play regardless. A cbet should still have some decent fold equity since Kaei may called preflop with a wider range than most even OOP. I can easily give him JJ, AQs and possibly QQ and AK if he elects not to 5bet these sometimes.īut you still have AA, AK, and QQ as the 4better. Even most pairs should be folding as the implied odds for set mining aren’t correct (calling 30 million to win potentially 210 million, the needed price is around 10-1 and Kaei knows this). Your 4bet should have folded out the ambitious parts of his 3betting range since SPR is only 2 after the call. I’m torn on whether a cbet is good despite the board sucking for your exact hand. So this opens the door to bluffing, and if anyone on the site is capable of pouncing on perceived weakness it’s Kaei. I assume your flop checkbacks are unbalanced, meaning you only do this when don’t like the board and never as a deception play with a strong hand. I can’t imagine a worse board for KK in a 4bet pot.
