This deserves to get seen by a few more people. From our resident Stupidhead...v1.27Feral Cow Poker Hand ConverterHEM/Poker Stars NL Hold'em $1.00/$2.00 - 6 playersButton: $237.98SB: $200.00BB: $60.00

I remember when this thread was all about how bad KJ was at 3betting

He's probably not flatting KJ's raise otf if he had a2. Besides, A2 is such a small portion of his range here, we are never ever ever ever ever ever ever folding the turn. People are stupid, they do

I prob 3b for value almost 100% of the time vs a 46/46. But I can get on board with your line as he is gonna barrel almost his entire range, which is super wide.So yeah, nh imo.

One of the things I've been messing around with this month is bvb play.I heard somewhere that at these stakes, it can be profitable to raise the majority of your SB when it's folded to you, and then if you're called just play fit or fold. It seems passive at first, but the majority of your value is coming from all the times the BB folds since most players won't defend their BB as often as they should when the SB open raises.I've only got 123 hands so far this month in these spots, but I'm up almost 4 BI's. Ran good in some spots, but not losing anything major in the pots I don't win. Those little pots you win when they fold pre do add up over time.
These also come up live. At my local 3/6 NLHE game, almost everyone chops the blinds if it is folded around to the SB, but I always felt that I was losing a tonnnnnn of value here, so I made it known to everyone that I NEVER chop my blind. I have easily made 1 BI, and probably a lot more just from BvB play since making that switch. Indeed, Stupidhead was jealous enough that he started following the same policy.

Sample size ? Probably play about 4SB's a session live; Having it fold all the way around to the SB in a live game happens about twice a year in my experience. Also depending on the rake structure it might be better to chop. I feel sorry for the fish in this hand. Poor bastard, probably got the maximum from me too before the major suckout.

Sample size may be low, but not ridiculously low -- probably around twice a night. But it is ridiculously +EV in those spots. Stupidhead can confirm this.They don't take a rake until post-flop and since I will never take the opportunity to limp the SB or check the BB after a limped SB, any pot that *does* get raked will be large enough to expect one.

@88 I normally go to $2.50 as I like to give myself a good price on bluffs. Obv the smaller we 3b the wider their calling range will be, but I think ppl will play kinda straight forward vs our cbets in these spots.All of this is assuming villains are TAG and such... without reads all these spots are a little different
