This guy is a new reg but i can tell he's solid. once he reraises i put his range on QQ+, AK, but it could be even tigher, KK+. i just call to try and get the 3rd guys money in (huge donk) but he folds.

Flop: 9♣ Q♣ 6♣ (t625, 2 players)
BB bets t300, hero

on q high flop i figure to be behind EVERYTHING, but i still cant make the fold. i end up shoving. how bad is this....

Why didn't you push PF?

edit- okay I see you called to bring the other guy along, but that's a bad idea IMO. Just push and get it in against AK/QQ/JJ.

I definitely cant think of one reason not to reraise and protect KK. I take these times to double up early. bringing in 3rd IS not something I would do. Multi way KK Dont like it. Heads up You might not be as behind. Shoving is fine. Calling might have been better,
Couldve seen one card if it hits fold if it doesnt you might be more like to win it with a shove on the turn. Unless he turn aa then you were meant to lose.

i'm piushing preflop as well. you have the added benefit that villian does not know you very well so his calling range will be expanded a bit.

+1 to LJ.

As played, fold flop as we dont have Kc? Even with Kc are we mucking with a range of QQ, KK, AA, and possible AcKx hands

As a sidenote, I would RARELY 3bet AK oop here vs ep raiser + flatter , or probably vs anything other than a button/sb raise
