iPoker - 50/100 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

SB: 45.75 BB (VPIP: 29.82, PFR: 18.18, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 57)
BB: 90.9 BB (VPIP: 35.39, PFR: 16.95, 3Bet Preflop: 4.35, Hands: 181)
UTG: 41.11 BB (VPIP: 33.05, PFR: 24.35, 3Bet Preflop: 12.06, Hands: 611)
Hero (MP): 64.4 BB
CO: 42.06 BB (VPIP: 19.48, PFR: 12.26, 3Bet Preflop: 5.98, Hands: 849)
BTN: 120.54 BB (VPIP: 27.78, PFR: 18.87, 3Bet Preflop: 6.90, Hands: 54)

6 players post ante of 0.12 BB, SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 2.22 BB) Hero has K K

fold, Hero raises to 2 BB, fold, BTN raises to 6.25 BB, fold, fold, Hero calls 4.25 BB

Flop: (14.72 BB, 2 players) T 8 7
Hero checks, BTN bets 6.85 BB, Hero raises to 58.03 BB





Could use some help preflop and on the flop, here are my thought processes on those streets:

PREFLOP: I admit a small sample, but this just instinctually felt like a spot where vill would be 3betting the button very wide with some bluffs and dominated hands. So I elected to flat in hopes of capturing some postflop bluffed chips.


FLOP: As played, my plan was to x/call cbets on safe flops (continuing the trap), or check-jam my under-repped hand on scarier flops such as the one I encountered.


I guess my fundamental question is do you prefer slowplaying or fastplaying preflop? How about on the flop?

I think im happy to 4b pre here at this stack depth and V having position. We need to have a 4b range and this is a great candidate, hes proly going to vpip JJ+,AK being so deep so proly is fine

I like your thought process. Villain with these stats and BTN might be on the wider side and lets keep those hands in his range by not 4betting. As played, i do not mind a jam, make it look like a semi-bluff or AT, or to get calles by those hands. Was thinking of maybe raise flop to 20bb en go all-in on the turn, but we might only get action from hands that have us beat. Lets stack it, while those hands dont have us beat. Well played i would say.

I feel like there is no need for a 4bet range with some bluffs at the lower stakes, too fancy. So dont really agree with above comment.
