I think taking this pure equity-based approach is a bit limited.
Really the only hands that can leverage a significant equity-based advantage with preflop 3-betting with relatively deep (100bb) stacks are JJ+. After that point, equities run fairly close so it really becomes more about "floppability" from there, and hand like KQs or even as weak as J3s can be an effective 3-bet both with elements of value and bluff.
Vs a button open I 3-bet 99+ and AQ+ for "value" in the sense that I am fairly happy to play all in pre with them. But I also 3-bet strong suited hands like ATs QJs 98s because they have great value postflop in 3-bet pots, and enough equity all in pre that I can flat 4bets or 5 bet jam or fold them at my discretion. These hands would obviously be profitable to call, but far more profitable to reraise, and in a sense they widen my "value" range so i can 3-bet even more junky hands that have a greater "bluff" element.
You're not wrong, but remember: "Along these lines, we’re really going after some low-hanging fruit for the players who aren’t sure about opening up their pre-flop 3-betting."Quote:
