Button is a 13/10/4.5 over 300 hands
MP2 is a 10/0/5 over 60 hands

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

SB ($99)
BB ($71.90)
Hero ($114.85)
UTG+1 ($100)
MP1 ($94.50)
MP2 ($96.90)
MP3 ($105.85)
CO ($103.40)
Button ($107.95)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with K, K.
Hero raises to $4, 2 folds, MP2 calls $4, 2 folds, Button raises to $10, 2 folds, Hero calls $6, MP2 calls $6.

Flop: ($31.50) 5, Q, T (3 players)
Hero checks, MP2 checks, Button bets $15, Hero raises to $30, MP2 raises to $86.9, Button folds, Hero ??

I just called the Reraise preflop thinking MP2 would fold and I could play heads up with the button. Minraise on the flop was probably not the best, but I wanted to see what they would do without putting to much more money in the pot. I think I butchered this pretty good

He's pretty tight, but does have a high pfr. Do you know if he 3 bets at all?

What makes me wonder here is you've made an UTG raise and then with a smooth call he's only making it $6 more to go. He HAS to know that he's getting a call. Unless you have a solid read that it's AA, I want to get some more (if not all) of it into the pot preflop while squeezing mp2 out of the picture.

Taking a flop 3 way with an obvious set hunter is not the way to go here.

minraises are much more acceptable in re-raised pots. i don't think you can call mp2's push.
Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.

you need to 3(4?) bet this preflop to siolate the reraisor. Once the flop comes if you play it that way it doesnt matter because were all in on or by the turn. If he has AA then vnh, if he has QQ i like him calling our raise waaaaay behind.

jackvance is an unknown quantity at this point
I think on the flop you're beating nothing anymore.. ok you still beat AK but AA is still ahead and QQ/TT just made a set. As played, AK/JJ aren't reraising you, I think this is an easy fold..

And btw I call these guys "nits", not TAGs :P
