Co is 74/12/4 after 17 hands no special read on him yet. He just call a lot pre and call a lot of cbets and basically call you all the way to SD with like medium pair
BTN is 55/7/2 after 73 hands he was not aggro pre. My read on him was that he like to Bluff the turn with draw but it doesn´t matter in this hand.
BB is 66/3/0 after 32 hands tipical calling station

My ideas are under the hand

Poker Stars $0.02/$0.05 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players - View hand 1792472

Hero (SB): $5.00
BB: $5.53
UTG: $1.74
MP: $3.00
CO: $1.34
BTN: $8.30

Pre Flop: ($0.07) Hero is SB with Q Heart A Spade
2 folds, CO calls $0.05, BTN raises to $0.20, [color=red]Hero ???

I´m not comfortable here definitely. I don´t know whether I should 3 bet to try to not play family pot but play HU pot against one of the fishes or just call here and invite BB and CO. If i 3-bet here i can be sure that i will be 4-bet only by better and if I get called i will have hard time OTF when i won´t hit my TP or better. What are your advices guys ? And if I´m 3 betting is it clearly for value...he could be calling AJ, KQ type hand. And if it is better call why ? I know maybe this is some basic stuff but it will help me a lot. Thanks Smile

I would 3bet pre and fold to a 4bet. I dont think its a great spot and if the BU never isolates wide then I could find a fold here.

Make it about 65c

We are really 3betting as a bluff but if called we are probably doing quite well vs opponents calling range.

Why not flat and go multi-way, with all the Ax in fishes range and Qx...we can pretty much play perfectly on a ton of flops. and not be in bloated pot with AQ vs which could be with a ton of fish OOP and not knowing what to do on rag flops..no matter what if we hit were gonna have a good chance to get fishes stack anyways on TP boards...3 betting as a bluff as said above doesnt really make sense?? wouldnt we be 3 betting for value and to iso because villain calls with worse..dont know what we would make villain fold thats better and then we run the risk of folding out a ton of worse hands Ax Qx from other fishes range by 3 betting...and our equity vs the top of fishes betting range if hes 4 betting.
