Anonymous fast fold tables...

Ignition - $0.50 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 99 BB
Hero (SB): 101.76 BB
BB: 102.18 BB
UTG: 247.66 BB
MP: 110.02 BB
CO: 99.48 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has K

fold, MP raises to 2.5 BB, fold, fold, Hero raises to 11.5 BB, fold, MP calls 9 BB

Flop: (24 BB, 2 players) J

Hero bets 7.4 BB, MP raises to 26.2 BB, Hero?

I feel like most villains just call the flop with JJ, and a lot of players fold 55/66 to the PF 3bet. Sure, villain might have a slowplayed QQ+. But again, does he really raise these very often?

Does anyone else find this raise suspicious? And if so, how should I proceed?

Thanks for any help!

There was a similar hand here where the common opinion was just get it in. Don't know if having As changes things but yeah that raise is most likely bullspoop.

It was this thread :

But it was a 4bet pot. in the current thread the SPR is slightly higher.

Sheet my bad forget it was 4bp. Checked it out if As makes an difference and it does. 100% check and if we bet we fold.

Regardless of what the solver says, I feel like the concept is similar to the 4bet hand that boulgakov linked... bloated pot, raggy flop that often misses the 3bettor/4bettor, and a spot where villain's value might not raise.

Does anyone think this is a good spot to shove from an exploitative perspective?

I feel like this is a mix between folding and shoving. Not sure what the actual mix is but personally I'm folding more then raising but would have some shoves
