So I was playing ~ 21/18 with 8% 3bet or so when I get QQ and want to get some $$.
I flatted a small 3b IP from EP vs SB who 3betted a lot also with QTs ( ~36bb ES also( and went to showdown maybe this factors in any of his decion
Villains opens from HJ and was playing 21/19 with 16/7% 3bet over ~90hands
First of all:
Sizing?Induce? And what range do you want to GII against him
Second of all: Do you think his play was spewy, or is this 'normal' in MTTs reg vs reg ( im not a 100% MTT reg, but i play the BIGs etc daily)
What repush range do you like here, versus 4b/f range
So to sum it up
1) 3b Sizing, induce?
2) What is a legit range from him to min4b/f, is this ~35ES spewy HJ vs BB?
3) What should my calling range be TT AQs AK vs him or lighter?
4) His openship vs a 4b/f
Oh and also yea fml, but I want to get more info on whats legit here
Poker Stars, $20 Buy-in (800/1,600 blinds, 200 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 9 Players
If he thinks you are capable of folding everything except AK, QQ, KK, AA to his shove it's not too bad a move on his part (didn't do the math but this feels about right).
I think I 3b a little bigger, around 8k, although looks like your sizing did induce so not bad.
Definitely gii QQ+, AQs, AK with no real read other than he's a reg. Now that you know he's capable of shoving light you can call a little lighter.
I don't know that he would even have a 4b/f range in this spot if he's shoving light. Maybe 99-TT?
a) slightly bigger, 7654
b) i dont think he has a range in that samplesize but rather goes with recent dynamics
c) as a default you should not turn hands like AQ in a 3b/f bluff, so flat or 3b/c them
d) see b), if he can ~15k/f because of dynamics he'd prolly not jam the top of his range to balance
bigger sizing cuz we are OOP? I liked the 2,4x of his raise as opposed to bigger
+ I still think with 36bb ES he should be able to create a 4b/f range
Anyway whats most regs pushing idea here? Go with Ax that has x as blockers to premium pairs, or maybe even A2s? Prolly totally dynamic dependant?
( I did not 3b him once at this table so far)
I know you said that you're 3b 8%, but alot of times people 3b more from the blinds. So if your 3b is higher from sb, bb I'm fine with jamming AJ there.
Also I like your 3bet sizing if It was to induce the 4b. Against sticky Villains that might call your 3b and see three I would 3b bigger.
Bra it's HJ vs BB. Not EP vs BB. Ur range is too tight. Ya I flat 77 88 AJ close to 90% of da time, but 3b/c AQ+ 99+ is def fine this deep reg vs reg nbet dynamic these days. Also, he might 14555/f then we jam over him pick up loads of dead monies.
So whats an optimal sizing OOP @ this stack depths for 3b. Is this really to small considering villains image? in game I liked it and could see him spazz very widely. Once again my sizing does give him possibilities for setmining IF he thinks im mostly nutted here, so that might be a reason to 3b bigger.
Am I wrong considering 2,25 IP and 2,4 or so OOP? Or more based on stackdepths?
Also not sure if we should like flatting AJ after a 3b, unless we know reg 3bets very widely in which case a 4b/f might also have merits.

also 2 resteal stacks between hero and vil are worth mentioning, I thought he's smth like MP1 though. Might go with 99 as well then.

generally getting better price to call some playable hands from Bb you dont have that wide 3betting range .
At the same time vs active guys yoy can 3bet wider to avoid playing some hands oop, which are flopping badly and it also means you size 3bets bigger not to allow active guy to have wide 3bet calling range ip.
So when you 3bet small you either a bit clueless or for some reason you dont want him to fold.
Generally 3bet sizing is a function of stack depth and villains tendency to flatcall 3bets, but still smth like 2.7x is std for these stacks.
