    Default Another raise question?

    MP1 is 15/13 Agg 2 cbet 50%(2), turn bet 50%(2) over 56 hands
    BB is 11/7 Agg 1.3 3bet 1% over 442 hands

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (8 handed) - PokerStars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    UTG ($10.85)
    UTG+1 ($12.66)
    MP1 ($10.30)
    Hero (MP2) ($11.16)
    CO ($10.15)
    Button ($10.27)
    SB ($12.31)
    BB ($10)

    Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 8, 8
    2 folds, MP1 bets $0.30, Hero calls $0.30, 3 folds, BB calls $0.20

    Call to set mine obviously.

    I put MP1 on 22-AA, ATs+, AJo+, 98s+
    I put BB on 22-TT, AJs+, AQo+, SC's possibly as low as 78s+. I discount JJ+ as I think he'd be likely to 3bet squeeze with those. Also discount AK somewhat for the same reason.

    Flop: ($0.95) 4, 9, 8 (3 players)
    BB checks, MP1 bets $0.60, Hero calls $0.60, BB calls $0.60

    Call here because besides the lowish straight draw the board seems fairly dry and unlikely to have hit either of them hard. Plan is to bomb the turn.

    I think MP1 could cbet his entire preflop range on this board.
    BB I put on 78, T9, JT. I discount 44 and 99 and 98 here as I think he'd be raising them. TT is also possible.

    Turn: ($2.75) J (3 players)
    BB checks, MP1 bets $1.36, Hero raises to??

    Not the greatest turn card.

    BB checking again leaves me thinking 8x, 9x, TT or possibly JT
    I put MP1 on KQ, JJ, 99, 44, AJ+, QQ+, TT, T9, 98. I'm ahead of most of that.

    Raise to?

    My guess would be something like $3.50-$4.00 which(assuming MP1 calls and BB folds as most likely scenario) charges draws and also sets it up for a touch over 1/2 psb to get stacks in on river.

    Yes $4 seems about right.

    I'd raise the flop. BB's range is really tight, even tighter from the BB, and he 3-bets 1%, which is like KK+ -- he can have overpairs here.
    Playing big pots at small stakes.

    I like a minraise on the flop.

    Thanks for the replies.

    @ baudib - I hadn't really thought about BB having over pairs but with a 1% 3bet stat he could definitely play TT-JJ/QQ like this and call a flop raise. Will work on my situational awareness a bit more to try to figure out the best way to get value in this type of situation.

    It's unlikely that many tighter players c-bet this board in a 3-way here.
