Pacific Poker - $0.20 NL - Holdem - 8 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 3

UTG+1: $22.85
MP: $9.33
MP+1: $38.06
CO: $29.97
BTN: $20.55
Hero (SB): $20.00
BB: $23.76
UTG: $23.01

Hero posts SB $0.10, BB posts BB $0.20

Pre Flop: ($0.30) Hero has K♦ A♦

fold, fold, fold, MP+1 raises to $0.60, fold, fold, Hero calls $0.50, fold

Flop: ($1.40, 2 players) A♥ 3♣ 4♥
Hero checks, MP+1 bets $0.80, Hero calls $0.80

Turn: ($3.00, 2 players) 8♣
Hero checks, MP+1 bets $2.25, Hero calls $2.25

River: ($7.50, 2 players) 5♥
Hero checks, MP+1 bets $3.75, Hero calls $3.75

As you can see I'm in big mess now. I'm not talking about call on the river beacuse I knew that I was behind. I decided to call for information.

I'm talking about preflop that I completely don't know how to play easy hands...

How should I 3bet pre flop?
I can see few reasons:
- we are OOP
- we don't want to play in multyway pot because he don't know what to do BB
- we don't want to be squeezed bu BB player

I have problem know when I should have just call? Please explain me it...

Hello BGawli,

Preflop the play is fine, although what I don't like that much to Call down 3 streets while the opponent rather is winning at the showdowns. I don't really see many hands what we beat anyways and any weaker Ax is he checking behind on the river.

Best Regards.

What about 3betting pre?

He has a high fold to PF 3bet, and BB will most likely fold facing two raises.

Both options are fine. Even 3betting shouldn't be a problem, especially if the guy folds enough to 3bets and we avoiding exactly such a play as hero did.
