300plrs 5.50 Deepstack - Final table

I see atleast 3 mistakes: preflop,flop,and river

Why would you defend BB with K2 offsuit, 20bb deep? Preflop you had only two options, to 3bet shove of to fold. If he is raising a lot, shove him, as you see he would fold J7s and about 80% hands that he is stealing with.. Still, I would just fold, and wait for better situation.

Futher streets are just what happend when you play out of position with such a trash.

Its not necessary a bad play or big mistake, if you know how to play post flop or you have some kind of read on opponent how to exploit him on later streets, but if you have no info or you dont want to get in diff spots just fold pre.

It is not true that you have only fold/3bet options, you should have calling range, but it should consists more from suited connectors, suited one gappers 87s, 97s, etc. You can flop good equity with those hands and they are easier to play post flop.

The thing why you dont want to call with Kxo or Axo is that it is hard to play them profitably because you will be dominated most of the time if you hit your top pair, you dont want to play guessing game at the final table for your stack being oop.

If you know the opp is loose and his 4bet isn't high you can even 3bet/f with hands like Ax Kx, as you have a blocker there and i dont think most players will be happy to 4bet jam on you light there. Math behind is if you 3bet to ~20k(something around pot size bet) your bet needs to work less than 50% of a time, so take equity calc and do the math if he folds more you can happily 3bet him all day long, but you need to be realistic to determine what kind of range he is willing to 4bet here and there are no shame to fold after you have 3bet him as 15bb for you are still enough to play with.

I would not defend an off-suit King here, for reasons discussed above. I think we can defend it suited if we are confident in our post-flop, but even then it's close.

I think the flop call is fine once we hit, and I'm also checking ott to allow him to barrel. On the river I'm certainly leading out and the sizing looks fine, but we have to fold to the shove. No way he's shoving worse or shoving a bluff here very often at all.
