3-Bet pots oop

Supa, fwiw, I'm at 50nl atm and I still rarely flat 3bets OOP. You put yourself in so many spots postflop where you don't know where you're at and it can really fuck with your winrate if you try to playmaster everyone.

I'm not saying don't ever do it, but you need to have a solid read, and a clear, concise plan that you're willing to execute postflop before you attempt to do it. Otherwise you're just torching the extra 5-10bb.

Lets get this straight. Lets give players just starting out an excuse to not know why they are doing what they are doing. Then later on, when they get reads lets have them know when to and when not to make that decision they have never thought about.

Oh my God, you're so smart and witty, please teach me to own forum threads like you do!!!!1

Seriously though, stop being an ass. That's not what anyone is saying at all in this thread. StarGrinder basically just hit the nail on the head and said what I said but better. When a person is just starting out in poker, and have been a losing player/fish their whole lives, its usually necessary to start out with general rules such as these and "never fold KK PF 100bb deep."

When that person is playing a solid style that is already breakeven/winning then they can look to more marginal spots to eek out more profit. This is one of those spots where you can work on it away from the table vs specific regs that abuse you IP (BTN vs CO, BB vs BTN, etc) and you can work to exploit them BEFORE you play a hand of poker.

Seems pretty obvious..?
