One hand where I lost a $100 pot yesterday, I 3bet with KK from SB, this LAG called from CO. Flop comes 10JQ. Ordinarily I tread on boards with 3 broadways very lightly. I reference the guide on 3bet pots as the aggressor, it says
"Flop
• Same rules like in the single raised pot, with the only difference that you are getting
it all‐
in versus a raise with FD, OESD and TP as well"
Well I got OESD and TP as well (guide makes no references to overpairs, just Top Pair). Where without the guide I would have maybe check called and reevaluate on the turn, the guide says this is a spot to get it all in if I get raised, so I lead out, I get raised, I get it all in, guy shows up with J10o, and his bottom 2 pair hold on river, deducting $50 from my poker bankroll.
Then when my friend reviews the hand he heavily criticizes that I went broke with KK on a board with 3 broadways in a 3bet pot. But I never go broke with an over pair on a board with 3 broadways! The guide told me to go broke here, HIS GUIDE that he told me to follow if I wanted to win at 50nl.
