This guy was a 20/10 and the BTN was a fish, so my plan was to call preflop, keep in all of their dominated hands. If I flop TPTK i’m going to play the hand pretty fast and pretty much exactly how this hand played out. I just wanted to know if this was a good overall plan. As it typically goes against my standard of 3betting here preflop almost always.
