PokerStars - $0.05 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3

BB: $5.15 (103 bb)
Hero (UTG): $5.00 (100 bb)
MP: $5.00 (100 bb)
CO: $4.78 (95.6 bb)
BTN: $14.12 (282.4 bb)
SB: $11.40 (228 bb)

SB posts $0.02, BB posts $0.05

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.07) Hero has Q

Hero raises to $0.16, 2 folds, BTN calls $0.16, fold, BB raises to $0.80, Hero calls $0.64, fold

Flop: ($1.78, 2 players) 2

BB bets $0.50, Hero raises to $1.86, BB calls $1.36

Turn: ($5.50, 2 players) 5

BB bets $2.49 and is all-in, Hero

The BB is 16/16 over 32 hands. I know we don't have enough data for reliable 3 bet number but he'd had 17 opportunities to 3 bet and he 3 bet 3 of them (17%).I have seen him 3 bet AJ once in a similar situation.
1.Do you agree with the call pre?
2.OTF? Call or raise?
Do you snap call the turn?

Hello, mate.

32 hands are nothing. If you had 400 hands (for example) it would still be nothing. In my humble opinion, people that are starting to play have the blunder to overestimate stats. Here my 2 cents: try to use this moment to learn the fundamentally sound poker instead of thinking about exploiting people based on 30 or 50 hands.

Preflop: it's a call.

OTF: you shouldn't raise here. It's a pure call.

OTT: as played, it's a call OTT.

Best regards.

You should always err towards the agressive option preflop in micro games because winning the pot without paying any rake is a massive benefit

we can do both call and 4bet pre - i like calling here at least 1/4 of the time and taking pots in position. turn is a call.

BTW My reasoning OTF goes like this: I don't block AK and the only combos that beat me are AA and KK. If I raise I would charge the draw AKc and maybe get some calls from JJ and TT. Correct?

Yes, I know. I never said you think think/do these things.

I agree with that. What I'm saying to you though is that such a small sample can not be considered an "information" to our purpose. That's why I said these hands are nothing: because, I'm my humble suggestion, I think you should consider it as nothing.

That's only part of the story. Poker is very hard and complex. That's why I respectfully suggested you to focus more on the theory and less on the villain's type/style.

Best regards.
