SB is TAggy
BB is a litle looser and more aggro

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Fnord is CO with A, Q.
5 folds, Fnord raises, 1 fold, SB 3-bets, BB caps, Fnord calls, SB calls.

Flop: (12 SB) 8, A, 3 (3 players)
SB checks, BB bets, Fnord raises...

Pre-flop I gotta call this, right?

On the flop I think a call can be argued for. Either I'm on 3 outs or both of my oppoents have 2 or 3 outs. Or is the pot so big that it's in my best interest to win it immediatly?

I guess this means smooth calling is incorrect, or close enough not to care? I probably get more value giving them the chance to make a bigger mistake.

Looks very standard. If 3-bet on the flop, I probably call it down, depending on reads... though I may just call the flop and see what SB does. It depends, though I often play it just as you have.

This one is close, but I think you make more by calling and letting BB drive here. I think SB has KK here, with AK a possibility. If it's KK, he may come along for the ride as long as BB (LAggy) is driving.

That said, I'd raise the flop also. Just can't help myself.

Superb play sir...I always call 20% of my stack off with a gutshot draw. Excuse me while I race for my wallet.

it's very close. what are SB raising standards? he doesn't have position, so i'd suspect he has you dominated a great majority of the time.

I'd call it down.

By calling you keep TT-KK donating cash with almost no chance to win and you lose the minimum amount to AK. Since the hands you let in are drawing thin risking the pot isn't that much of a problem.

Also you can fold for less if SB raises and BB 3-bets, if SB raises and BB calls I think it's a fairly easy call and check/fold the turn.
