GTECH G2 (Boss) - kr1 NL (5 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 65.63 BB (VPIP: 23.62, PFR: 10.50, 3Bet Preflop: 0.76, Hands: 401)
Hero (BB): 193.01 BB
UTG: 149.02 BB (VPIP: 34.45, PFR: 25.21, 3Bet Preflop: 7.14, Hands: 122)
CO: 185.63 BB (VPIP: 26.06, PFR: 16.80, 3Bet Preflop: 6.08, Hands: 519)
BTN: 159.15 BB (VPIP: 33.33, PFR: 11.11, 3Bet Preflop: 12.50, Hands: 19)

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has 4♥ 4♦

Note: I raise mainy as a bluff here. CO has a fold to 3B of 73% and the other guy is basically unknown (although a bit to loose so far.) We are quite deep with effectve stacks bewteen 155-200 BB so I figure I have a decent implied odds in case I get a caller.

fold, CO raises to 3.5 BB, BTN calls 3.5 BB, fold, Hero raises to 13 BB, CO calls 9.5 BB, BTN calls 9.5 BB

Flop: (39.5 BB, 3 players) K♥ J♠ 4♠

Note: Two callers. Not exaclty what I anticipated. But fortunately the flop connected. I bet for value and hope to get a call from KJ, AK, KQ and AsQs, AsJs,AsTs. I believe that KK would have 4 bet pre so that's not in my opponents ranges . JJ is possible for CO but not BTN since he didn't raise pre.

Hero bets 19.75 BB, CO raises to 44.5 BB, BTN calls 44.5 BB, Hero raises to 180.01 BB and is all-in, CO calls 128.13 BB and is all-in, fold

CO ceckraises. He could do this with KJ and some flushdraws as well as the terrible JJ of couse. I I call I will be commited to the pot. I decide I can't lay down a set here and to fold OTT when having invested half my stack would be foolish. So and raise all in to get value from KJ and flushdraws.

Pls comment on the flaws in my thought process.

Turn: (429.26 BB, 2 players) 9♠

River: (429.26 BB, 2 players) 9♥

Spoiler

Hero shows 4♥ 4♦ (Full House, Fours full of Nines) (Pre 19%, Flop 4%, Turn 2%)
CO shows J♣ J♦ (Full House, Jacks full of Nines) (Pre 81%, Flop 96%, Turn 98%)
CO wins 418.53 BB

Hi Baggydogg

Preflop: Given that you are actually deep with both CO and BTN I doubt that you have the fold equity that you would need with such a hand. And playing postflop in a deep spot with this hand sucks.

Postflop: This deep, vs 2 and on a somewhat wet board I think you can bet bigger. 27-28 wouldn't be terrible.

As played I agree that we can't fold a set in a 3-bet pot even if he can sometimes have JJ.
