Anon. I'm guessing this is a standard flop shove here?

For next hands try to dont post results. I would just fold, he is calling a 3bet oop, i believe his range would be like 33,66,TT,Axcc. Considering he is opening from utg and calling a 3bet, there isnt much more hands that can raise there.

Against a range of Axcc,JJ+,sets u are in a flip. Maybe u can think that he can have AT?, but i still believe this is just a fold. In the best case you are in a 50/50.

In general JJ and QQ will flat the flop and x/r a safe turn or call you down, so I think you can discount them from their raising range. You also have the Kc which blocks a lot of the opponents potential flush draws.

Taking all that into account, without reads you should still stack off.

With reads you can consider some of the variables I posted, and if the guys is a massive nitball - find a fold

@Sam If u think he is just going to call flop with JJ-QQ, and u block some of the FD. Why would you stack off on the flop? which hands do you think we are doing well against?

It's 5NL and people suck, that pretty much sums it up :D. Once he has proven he isn't a total monkey I would consider folding

It takes quite a bit of experience - and a lot of confidence - to fold a hand that good on a board like that, so tough for a nl5 player to do, what a sucky spot.

I could make the fold these days against some player types as pointed out in earlier posts, but versus an unknown my chips would be in the middle before I'd had time to count villain's raise. I could get called by A6o or an underpair like 8s or whatever, it's quite random sometimes.

Sigh.

Totally fine with stack sizes and board texture. We cannot peal and have backdoor clubs and any K if we are behind to a set. In a 3B pot this is always the standard line. villain will often show up with draws, worse over pairs and even some bluffs where we win plenty without showdown so not a complete disaster.

Probably an exploitative flop fold in all reality. Pretty close though.

Micro players don't generally have a tendency to call 3bets OOP from early then check/raise bluff a bunch of flops. Usually for value and his value range is primarily sets. Usually does make a bit of a difference whether we have KK or JJ here, since weaker players may overplay stuff like QQ. And it's really the frequency with which this happens that determine whether we can ever 3bet for value.
