Villian seems like a standard TAG. 30/14/3, I realized that a flat call probably doesn't get me a ton of value on the river if villian has < 2pair, so raising the turn was the right play. When he shoves over my raise the call is automatic, right?

1. Fold PF. This is a trash hand. If you are playing it raise to .4, but you should never play this hand in this position.

2. Fold flop, you have nothing and no real draw in a 3 way pot. You are almost always behind in a 3 way pot if you miss and someone else bets.

3. As played flat call turn, he has a good hand that he will probably stack with considering he doesn't have much left, and a backdoor flush or gutshot straight is quite deceptive. There is no reason to re-raise, you want to see river cheaply. As played with the silly re-raise, yes you have to call but you played this wrong the whole way and really don't want to be going AI here.

Also, when posting HH's you need to include stack sizes, they are extremely important.

Fold preflop, you dont have much implied odds with suited shite vs someone who's not bought in full.

Calling the flop is semi-ok.

I don't understand why you're raising the turn. You have the worst hand, you're behind, he's definitely not going to fold. Your draw is quite big so you can call his bet and stack him on the river if you like.

i typically chuck this preflop.
i also fold the flop here often. my preference of choice is fold, raise for free cards (even if the backdoor flush comes in), and lastly call.

turn looks pretty spew. you still only have king high, and this guy's bet strong for 2 streets. he's unlikely to fold.
