Hi!

Preflop: Hero is BB with K♥: Q♦:
UTG folds, MP raises to $0.12, CO calls $0.12, 2 folds, Hero raises to $0.55, MP calls $0.43, CO folds

$8.64 pot ($0.36 rake)
Final Board: 6♥: 6♣: K♦: 9♥: 3♦:
Hero mucked K♥: Q♦: and lost (-$4.25 net)
MP showed K♣: A♣: and won $8.28 ($4.03 net)

I had a bad feeling after the flop call and I tried to slow down a bit. (But its hard OOP).

I think this hand was to high in my range to fold. Am I right?

I wonder, what´s better option preflop - 3b or call? Can anybody break it down please? OTF flop cbet is fine, we get called by PP and worse Kx. OTT xc also fine. River is weird, the sizing looks exactly like AK, otherwise it don´t make sense to me. So the question is if he valuebets KJ, KT there. We also block some of his bluffs - hearts, QJ, QT. I think I would fold this one, mainly because ppl ain´t aggressive enough OTR. Top of ur range or not, doesn´t matter at NL5.

I agree with 100% of previous post lol : preflop dont' know if 3bet or call is better, I like flop cbet and turn check/call but river what do we beat ?
What are his bluffs ? His value thin ? Even if KQo is a little too high on your range I think you're better of folding at NL5.

It depends of the players we are dealing with, but most standard line would be to call OOP. You don't want to play a big pot out of position and KQ isn't playing that bad post-flop ether. As played you can easy bet around half pot on the flop if the orginal raiser called a lot on cbets. The rest seems alright, but the aren't to many hands you will beat except a bluff.
