I dont have a read on this guy, Certainly his range for raising could be AK, AA, KK, QQ, maybe JJ?

I think I should have led out on the flop??

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver Cards)

MP2 ($9.45)
MP3 ($6)
CO ($11.55)
Button ($8.60)
Hero ($11.40)
BB ($6.10)
UTG ($10.85)
UTG+1 ($2.70)
MP1 ($13.35)

Preflop: Hero is SB with , . MP3 posts a blind of $0.10.
2 folds, MP1 raises to $0.3, 1 fold, MP3 (poster) calls $0.20, 1 fold, Button calls $0.30, Hero raises to $1.1, 1 fold, MP1 raises to $2.5, MP3 folds, Button folds, Hero calls $1.40.
SHOULD I HAVE PUSHED IT HERE??b4 the flop?

Flop: ($5.70) , , (2 players)
Hero checks, MP1 bets $2, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $7.70

Results in white below:
No showdown. MP1 wins $7.70.
3 3 3 I'm only half evil.

this is a good fold. at this level, villains are calling that raise with A8+ and maybe worse. i had to drop down to $10nl recently, and ive been raising more(in terms of BB's) than i did at $25nl. Also reraising to 5x rather than 3-3.5 will thin out the callers better.

Villain 3-bet pre-flop... I think he has AA/AK.

Agree.

I think this hand was played fine. Nothing wrong with a pre-flop push either.

Fine play. Tough luck on the flop. You could push here pre-flop if you feel like dodging and ace.

I'd say the fold is fine. I would push pre-flop. Leading the flop may not be a bad line either. If he's on the other KK or even QQ, he may fold.

I would be pushing this almost 100% of the time on pre-flop after the 4-bet. If he's got AA so be it, I've seen a lot worse hands call or 4-bet
