We raise AKo utg, get flatted by the HJ who by his stats is a straightforward reg. I don't have any history with him over 250 hands so no reads. BB comes along. He is an unknown (10 hands) but has less than a full stack so I assume he is fishy. I hit tptk on a heavyish/damp board and cbet. HJ flats. BB raises. I figure he has a lot of flush draws in his range here. He could have a set, but that is a very small part of a fishy range. HJ probably has an A to flat the cbet. I don't think he calls a T pre, unless it is TT. So I 3bet for value, but HJ calls my 3 bet, and UTG shoves.

I'm definitely calling the BB shove without the HJ in the pot. The question is, what range do we put HJ on now? What is our play accordingly?

I expect MP to be very strong here. He obviously keeps in the BB when he flats your raise again. Im folding. Our equity is pretty poor versus their combined ranges.

Hi,

Versus his flushdraws you'll have 60-65% equity depending on how he plays AsXs hands, when we add his solid value combos:

Equity Win Tie
MP2 30.45% 30.27% 0.19% AcKs
MP3 69.55% 69.36% 0.19% TT, 44, ATs, A4s, AsJs, QsJs, 9s8s, 8s7s, As6s, As5s, 6s5s, ATo

(he probably doesn't ch-raise flushdraws 100% of the time)

Now, he check-raises pretty small versus two people - I think he might be doing this with AQ/AJ, but not often enough to stack-off (esp. with MP around). Also, I don't play zoom, but I guess I'd give more credit to such aggression than on normal tables.

Given that you have a nutflush redraw and very good price, I'd call the flop check-raise and see what happens.

Regards

Fold, BB should never be playing a FD like this as the action went...If he is hes very spewy...Your pretrty much relyiong on the fact that you have TPTK,Thats your hand, vs MP and BB percieved ranges we are losing...Both players can easily have AT0 44 TT in there ranges and we block combo draws also, so there ranges should be more on the nuttish side.

BB is probably loose passive, so I'd just fold flop to his raise. If i didn't want to fold I'd flat. You're never bluff 3-betting. He's rarely value raising worse and you very rarely value-towning worse that won't pay off later.
