hey guys,

i had this hand today (well yesterday)…
PokerStars - $0.02 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 133.5 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 9)
SB: 55 BB (VPIP: 33.33, PFR: 20.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 46)
BB: 105 BB (VPIP: 28.33, PFR: 25.00, 3Bet Preflop: 14.29, Hands: 63)
UTG: 166.5 BB (VPIP: 16.67, PFR: 16.67, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 7)
Hero (MP): 199.5 BB
CO: 147 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: -, Hands: 2)

SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A♣ K♦

fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, CO raises to 7 BB, BTN calls 7 BB, fold, fold, Hero calls 4 BB

Flop: (22.5 BB, 3 players) T♦ K♠ 2♣
Hero checks, CO bets 1 BB, BTN calls 1 BB, Hero raises to 11 BB, CO calls 10 BB, fold

Turn: (45.5 BB, 2 players) 4♦
Hero bets 24 BB, CO raises to 49 BB, …

villain is unknown and i didn't really want to get into a 4bet pot oop against almost 150bb.
my plan was to c/c flop but i felt the 1bb bet was rather weak and not like a trap. however the turn aggression was pretty impressive…
what are your experiences with these minbets on micro? and if you have any thoughts about my line, i'd be happy to read them!

I think it's fine. Definitely raise flop for value and then bet turn again for value. But when he raises I just fold. Turn raises are generally still very strong, even moreso in 3bet pots. So while you're pretty much at the top of your range here, I still let this go expecting to see KK/TT here most of the time even though it obviously doesn't make much sense to bet 1bb with that OTF.

Maybe he raises here with QJ or A3 or some other random hand in which case gg to him, he got us, but we can just move on and be happy with our play and make our money in a better spot later :)

I think turn we should fold indeed. However, flop raise I agree we should get more value here.
