    Default 10NL : AJs in 3-bet pot

    (VP$IP/PFR [Street Aggression] 3-bet%)

    31/19 [3 2 1] 4%

    Should i rather be flatting here with AJs preflop ?

    How do i react to the dink flop bet as played ?

    Poker Stars $0.05/$0.10 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players

    MP: $6.40
    CO: $10.00
    BTN: $10.00
    SB: $33.50
    Hero (BB): $10.05
    UTG: $16.05

    Pre Flop: ($0.15) Hero is BB with A J
    UTG calls $0.10, MP calls $0.10, 2 folds, SB raises to $0.30, Hero raises to $1.10, 2 folds, SB calls $0.80

    Flop: ($2.40) 2 8 2 (2 players)
    SB bets $1, Hero?,

    You haven't put in too much money into the pot. SB might have a big pocket pair, he could have pocket 2's or pocket 8. A2 suited might like playing those. He might just be playing big stack poker just to bully you. You could call and see what come on the turn but a $1 bet might be too much to call a with only one diamond on the board. BTW how was the rest of this hand played out?

    flat and I think you're in decent shape if you get an ace or a jack
    probably not a good time to raise PF because a lot of regs will only raise AKo here and suited broadways
    if he raises AJs+,KQs you're behind his SB raising range
    if he raises a wider range to isolate the limpers it becomes better
    I'd personally just flat because we don't mind playing a multiway pot against shitties

    Yeah my first instinct was he is isolating the limpers, but you are right dont think that his SB range is wide enough here at 10NL. Will flat this unless i have reads that he has a wide enough range out of SB.

    in ur accounts... confiscating ur funz
    Until proven otherwise I'd give an SB raise with 2 limpers a lot of credit.

    As played I raise over that gay sized flop bet 100% of the time, until he tells me to stop... they usually don't

    You 3-bet pre, how about representing a 3-betting range *wink*

    So what raise ? Do we have to then jam given the stack sizes ?

    so what is your plan here if the or hits the turn and villain leads out with a PSB or even a HPSB?

    What's your plan if any Ace hits the turn and villain shoves over any bet of yours?

    I haven't run this through Pokerstove, but would guess that you don't have much equity against his range here.
    Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

    ugh, I can't get past the blocking bet. I can't tell if it's for value, or if he's trying to get a heart cheaply.

    I would float, but depending on how ghey the turn bet is I raise or fold, but never call.
    The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes
