    I like the standard 3b pre but I would go a bit larger. Don't make it easy for him to call cheap and see a flop. A larger 3b can entice a shove and creates a smaller SPR if he calls.

    Flop check is good.

    Villain only has 20bb, size seems fine mostly but bigger isn't bad. I wouldn't go more than 6.5-7bb tho. You don't want a smaller SPR with a hand like this. You'd want less SPR with like AKo instead.

    I might 3-bet a little larger being OOP (even 6bb is fine given villain's stack) and bet a little smaller on the turn, but all in all looks well played.

    I want to create a smaller SPR so villain is more willing to commit on the flop with a wider range. Larger SPR gives him room to escape. Granted we're only 22bb effective here, but still.

    We’re at 22bb effective and 5.5bb (or allin) is just fine. I’d go to 6.5bb if MP was a bit deeper at around 26bb and kick into 7bb from around 30bb.

    You only 3bet from sb this size with KK/AA I'm sure, so it's pretty face up. Add another 1bb to it and it's more multipurpose
    Flop you are going to bet ALL your bluffs on so I think a rly small size bet here is good. I don't think you will induce bluffs by checking and if he has something like a small - mid pair or any bd fd etc he will call now or check back so you may as well bet

    This. 3bet the size you 3bet your whole range with.

    I'd have been super suspicious of your flop check. I guess hands like QQ/JJ want to check there at some frequency, but Villain blocks those. His turn jam looks goofy, as well. What were the stakes here?

    I dont have a 3bet/fold range a 22bb so I am just shoving, but if you balance with some trash Ax its fine.


    I prefer a small cbet with my entire range on this flop. Then depending on the turn card and villain, you can decide if you want to check or jam.
