_____________________

Playing on mobile without HUD. Not paying attention to the action and thought I was openraising my hand, only to find out I was actually min 3betting an UTG range. Usually I'd be happy calling down in this spot in a usual 3bp (I wouldn't usually have AJo in my 3betting range here though) but this feels a lot scarier.

How does the min3bet affect V's aggression? I would guess when it becomes apparent I don't have AA/KK V thinks I'm just a fish clicking buttons and will call down with trash. At the same time I feel like V is likely to bluff me less.

Can't see this situation happening too often so it's not that important from a strategy perspective, but how would you play this?

I don't think it becomes apparent that you don't have AA/KK, in fact V calling pre shows he doesn't have them, you could be trying to trap him with a raise that small.

I think with that bet OTR, considering the action from all streets, V's range would be something like this (normally that river bet would be quite polarizing, but this whole situation started weird preflop so I can't be sure, there is a lot of estimating here):

JJ,AQs-AJs,KQs,JTs,Ad9d,Td9d,Ad8d,Ad7d,Ad6d,Ad5d,Ad4d,Ad3 d,Ad2d,AQo

I would guess V can call pre with a wider range when you min3bet, so I'd lean towards a call although I'm not a fan of the whole situation (V could also be thinking lol xd im owning this kid with my KJo, but who knows).

I would 3 bet/fold to a raise the flop IP anyway. Calling all the way sucks BIG TIME. Your range is EVERYTHING. TP , Big OP + sets. It should be still +EV against his flatting range. You might win the pot here. In case his ahead with QQ or something better You are IP and he might slow down on turn and river and You'll get a cheper showdown.
