Message: [QUOTE="300HPGOD, post: 6432013, member: 305911"] You posted this for BB: [B]BB 21BB ([/B]2x starting bounty [B]all in[/B]) (3 bet 6) Did they 3 bet to 6 BBs and the LJ jammed and then you had a decision and then after your decision BB eventually called or did BB jam over the 2.2 raise and call by you? That obviously makes a big difference. I will assume BB jammed and then LJ jammed over and then its on you. First let me say that you said you called pre flop since there were squeezers to your left and then one of them does squeeze and we still arent sure what to do. I dont like playing like that. If Im going to deviate from the norm (I think 3 betting pre here is the norm) then we should have already planned out what we are going to do if people behind just call, of someone behind jams and LJ folds, if someone behind jams and LJ jams over, etc. Deviating here and then not planning it out is something I would avoid. With all that said I like 3 betting pre here for two reasons. The stacks behind should not be 3 betting to a size other than getting it in unless maybe they have AA (not even sure AA would play tricky or just try to jam it in a bounty tourney) so I think if they are planning to jam then they will jam over your 3 bet as well and when that happens LJ will be less inclined to get involved and you have less of a fight for a bounty. 3 betting also isolates LJ since later player jams will happen less over your 3 bet (which is fine when you have JJ) and then you get to play in position or if LJ 4 bet jams I think we can then range them there safely and say our JJ isnt doing so well since they would be jamming with no chance at winning a bounty vs us. As played I think I lean towards fold here and its more than a lean to me. I know LJ will be getting in some worse hands than JJ due to bounty hunting and we capped our range (at least somewhat) by just calling pre so its possible LJ doesnt fear us and could have a hand like 99 here for instance. But overall, I dont like it and especially if you value a min cash (which imo in a lot situations to be honest is fine) then just fold. I would also say be careful what you wish for sometimes as you called pre wanting a squeeze and then got one. With JJ I am not looking to get squeezed all that often especially when the initial raiser is tight and therefore will have more of a continuing range against that squeeze. [/QUOTE]
