NL10 SH, KQo 3-way

Hi.

Preflop: I almost always open KQo unless the table conditions are terrible (0 fishes, hyper aggro players behind me). I think that's not going to be the case 99% of the time at NL10.

Flop and Turn play are both fine. IF the river is a blank card like 2:s I would shove for value. Remember that KQ is really strong vs these two fishes' wide ranges.

River: Check fold is best here, i'm pretty sure one of them has the flush.

Thanks.

Hi!

Yes, I for sure would shove blank river.
Do you think, I`m missing out on lot of value for not opening KQo, AJo from UTG?

I think its good to open those by default at lower limits cos people just call with way too many worse hands.if u only open 10% of starting hands or less it makes it rly easy to play against your utg range.

Now it`s 12%

What do you think about this UTG range?

22+, ATs+, KTs+, QTs+, JTs, T9s, 98s, 87s, AJo+, KQo

Should I include more suited Ax?

I'm not so sure shoving a blank river for value is a good idea, what hands do you expect to get value from? .. I think if we shove most of the time only better hands call us and everything worse folds

or maybe i'm thinking wrong?

EDIT: We've only invested $3 aswell so shoving for $7 seems like we are overplaying the value of KQ

The pot is huge, we definitely have a value bet vs worse kings and mayhap stuff like 88-JJ (guys are fishy, pot is huge, what a pity to let their hands go) and seeing how we have less than pot left we're gonna to invest more than half stack anyway with value bet, so we're pot committed and we have nothing to do but to shove here for maximum value. Plus with better hands we'd probably get action somewhere before the river.

Yeah i usually open all AXs hands but its not a big deal to fold them. A2s-A5s is better than A6s/A7s against tight ranges cos you can flop gutshots and the kickers arent as important.

Amt invested is irrelevant. Only thing that matters is pot size and whether we have value in a bet or not.
I think kq is beating way more worse hands (KX), AK probably 3bets preflop a lot and sets or twopairs usually raise flop or turn.
