    Default $50NL, TPTK villain shoves turn for over 2x pot

    Villain runs 34/17 over 50 odd hands FWIW

    Empire poker, was playing 6 max until a few hands ago, table broke up very quickly, this is only the second hand heads up, villain unknown.

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (2 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    BB ($70.96)
    Hero ($118.54)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with K, A. Hero posts a blind of $0.50.
    BB calls $0.25, Hero (poster) raises to $1.75, BB calls $1.50.

    Flop: ($4) 3, K, 3 (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $3.5, BB raises to $10, Hero calls $6.50.

    Turn: ($24) Q (2 players)
    BB calls $58.96 (All-In) (hero covers)

    Also, we're 140bb's deep, should I be raising a little more pre flop?

    Why is villain playing a 3 like this?
    I find it hard to think in (any) villains shoes (something that is going to block my progress for sure), so I my thinking is if villain has a 3 why is he shoving like this? I wouldn't anyway.
    Its pretty unlikely he thinks he's gonna be out-kicked, so why not and try and extract (he shouldnt have any sort of read that I'm a station, although obv I am tempted by calling here)

    I suppose pot odds etc he has to be doing this with a K (or bluffing) a lot more than not if a call is to be profitable.
