1.3k pot I died on the river
Nlhm $2/$3
Stack ~$600,
effective stacks.
V1 ~$500
V2 $323
Hero: 30 yo white male, my impression is that the table thought I might be a bit stationy and fishy as I've lost every flip and made a few bad hero calls, also my AA and KK got cracked by meh hands so maybe the table thought I was tilting.
V1: 30's something reg, made a good fold earlier with tpgk and read my hand for what I had in a medium to largish pot and made correct fold. Had been making moves on other players and getting to sd with busted high equity draws or choosing to show rather. Seems to be a thinking player.
V2: 40-50s regular who seems a bit stationy and sticky with fd's, playing pretty loose. Jammed K2cc into me oop as I was the pf 3bettor on a T34ccx board, I called with 99 and it held.

Otth
Hero: T9o
Preflop
V1 raises $15 Ep, V2 calls in the HJ, I 3bet to $40 in the CO. Some antics from me before raising, I've checked my cards when dealt them and as action folds around to me I announce 'I can't remember my cards so they can't b that good' then inspect them once more and announce raise.

Players behind fold, both V's call.

Flop $125
Ts8sTx checks to me, I bet $50. V1 min raises to $100, V2 calls. I call.
Turn $425
7x
checks to me, I bet $225, v1 folds, V2 goes allin for $183 more.
I call.
Thoughts?

What exactly made you decide to raise to 40? Why 3bet and why to 40? Would that be a standard sizing for you?

My main reason is that I felt like it would keep in more of their range and they may make moves post flop not realising how wide their perceived range actually is. With the hand that I actually have I want them to be making moves on a board like this that I have connected with but it shouldn't hit my perceived range. This sizing is on the smaller side even considering the fact I'm the IP raiser.

Your sizing both preflop and on the flop is really bad. Stacking off as played, but it was very sloppy.

make it 60 preflop and 70 OTF

As played you are never folding trips in a 3bet pot for 100bbs ez call

When you have a losing image, one of the last things you want to do is to start bluffing. You're going to get called. This was just the wrong time to squeeze light. Everything after that is just a consequence of your initial mistake.

I think preflop is setting money on fire. We're facing an EP raise and a call from a sticky player, we think we have decent preflop FE here? Thanks to preflop we've setup a lol SPR of << 3 against the sticky guy; we think we're gonna have any postflop FE? If we wanna get out-of-line I just flat and play a higher SPR pot in position where we'll have lots of postflop options. But mostly I just fold.

Flop is somewhat drawy and we're committed. I probably PSB the flop, especially with the sticky guy in the hand. If the small bet was to induce V1, ok, I guess it worked. But sticky guy has now stuck in almost half his stack so I just shove now expecting him to never fold.

Your stacks in the OP must be wack, it says V2 started with $323; your turn bet has already put him all in.

v2 stack is $548, don't know how I missed that. Small flop sizing fits in with my overall strategy and entire range. If I PSB flop the question it raises is what hands am I doing this with and when I am betting this flop with premium one pair hands do I expect calls from fd's and other made hands putting me on AK AQ, maybe maybe not.

Sizing on flop is fantastic. 1/3 pot on paired boards for majority of range plays really nice.
