1-3
Effective stack $250

UTG raises to 20.

Hero KQo

UTG1: call
Hero: Call
Fold
Fold
Call
Villain: bet to $80.

Folds to hero,

Hero?

Villain can be aggressive, can sometimes call light, has not 3 bet this high yet.

As far as a range, I’m thinking AK, maybe AQ, JJ+.

Should I call here? Should I shove?

The 3 bet is actually very small given 3 callers.

Pre is somewhat table dependent, and you've also not made clear whether villain has position on you or is in the blinds.

In a vaccum, my inclination is to fold both times pre. I get the pot odds are great for calling the 3-bet, but we also have someone between us and villain who could back raise. We also have some bad RIO. Are we really that happy when a King or Queen lands and villain still c-bets?

I would just fold the first time.

Fold pre. AP, fold to the 3bet. In a typical loose passive game, where players open limp and call limps wide, against a UTG open and a UTG+1 call, KQo is behind.
