Message: [QUOTE="bob_tiger, post: 1060192, member: 21874"] Count me in. I don't have my high roller status at the moment. Ok about 3betting, it's very important to understand the concept of 3 betting before moving up. Now I'm not sure if we are talking about 6 max or 9 but I'm assuming it's 9. The 3bet size like jagsti already has mentioned depends on the following: in position or oop/ type of player we are up against/ and last but not least the intention of our 3 bet. Out of position I'm more inclined to make my 3bet 4x if I have AA/KK and possibly with Qs I would make it about 3 or sometimes 3.5 and knowing nobody will really catch on to this at this level helps. As for in position its usually always 3x to 3.5. Oh and this is if we are up against decent players. As for fish who we got most of our money from, depending on their tendencies if they call my 3 bets a lot its usually not a bad idea to make it 5-6 times and sometimes maybe even shove to mix it up. And last most important thing is the intention of our 3-bet, it's very profitable and to balance your range to 3-bet people with weaker mediocre hands but you have to always consider the person you are 3-betting, I usually don't make squeeze plays at the beginning until I know how the player plays post flop, once I have a better understanding and know I can out play the fishy post flop then I will make that kind of play. The reason this play is so profitable is because you have so many ways to win the hand when you are in position, you may hit a straight, a set, two pair or w/e and the villain may think the flop is dry when it actually hit you and play back at you, or if for example A hits and you can c-bet and take it down, of course sometimes the villain might his hand and you have to know when to fold. At this level I don't think you have to worry about people floating you in 3 bet pots (they may be chasing a draw or something but a lot of times they don't intend to bluff you) so therefore if you get called after you double barrel it's usually safe to assume your 3rd one will get called too (unless you know villain was chasing a draw and missed it) so 3 barrel bluffing on this level is not that great of an idea but thats just my opinion. I personally like just bet bet bet for value and make fishies pay off. [/QUOTE]
