yuck. KQs in SB

Playing full ring, because it is less stressful.
But anyway... I have been getting better at (and caring more about) spotting online tells.
Something about COs hesitation told me he was stealing. I have him at 22/10, 20% att. to steal.
Button is a fish. 40/5, 50% wtsd... Which means he probably has 2 cards.

Against a steal KQs is an auto 3 bet, but against the button's call, I have a marginal hand out of position in a multiway pot.
In retrospect, I think I really should have 3 bet anyway. I most likely have the best hand, and taking the lead increases my equity.

If it is 6 max what would you do? I like to 3 bet here and lead the flop as you stated. And, you have odds to call one to see a turn card anyway.

But, your play isn't THAT bad against the right opponents so don't be too harsh on yourself.

You played it fine. If you 3 bet the flop, Button is in for 3 bets on the flop regardless and likely will calldown aggression with any piece of the flop. If you had picked up anything from the flop, you could bet hoping CO raises out the button, but this flop gives you nothing to fall back on.

true, but at the same time, the 3-bet could also open the possibility of free-card play given the late position. With 2 overscards, i would definetely 3-bet
