I'm getting a nice price after a small 3bet, is it worth taking a flop IP? I could just be crushed by a big pair.

SB - VPIP: 25, PFR: 16, 3B: 6, AF: 3.3, Hands: 97

Poker Stars, $6.37 Buy-in (60/120 blinds, 15 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 4 Players 9man

SB: 1,990 (16.6 bb)
BB: 1,448 (12.1 bb)
CO: 2,971 (24.8 bb)
Hero (BTN): 7,091 (59.1 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with J♦: T♦:
CO folds, Hero raises to 240, SB raises to 600, BB folds, Hero calls 360

Flop: (1,380) 5♥: 8♥: 8♣: (2 players)
SB bets 564, Hero folds

Results:

Spoiler

1,380 pot
Final Board: 5♥: 8♥: 8♣:
SB mucked and won 1,380 (765 net)
Hero mucked J♦: T♦: and lost (-615 net)

He is pretty much committing himself with his 3bet. So I expect he has a tight range and I would only push or fold here and in this situation I would fold here for sure. Only if he’s capable to fold a lot here you can consider shoving.

Cheers,

I would call this spot "3 Nos" :not very good chances to win, not much to win, no sence to loose chips and double up your opponent.

I presume you mean "wouldn't" not "would" in your previous comment?

"Call" in that context meant "name", sorry for a misleading language)
