looking for some opinions on always opening w/ a 3bet when folded to u

i learned this on a pro video but want some input from some ppl also.....

im sure many of you have heard it.... if yer hand is good enough to call it should b enough to raised so open raise and always 3bet to disguise what yer raising with so they dont know if u have 6's or kqHH.

im fairly new to put it frankly not bein a fish/donk. always had the passion just not the knowledge. and the more knowledge im gaining the more i want want want lol. so anything i learn im gonna b throwin out there to get a lil more personal info from the more experienced online players

thank you in advance

I've heard "if its good enough to play, its good enough to raise" which is good general advice. Never heard "always 3bet to disguise what you are raising", was this a limit hold'em video?

ive heard to keep your raises somewhat consistent to help disguise your hand. "Little Green Book" taught me that...i dont think i have ever heard always 3bet to disguise your hand though...

Always open raise AND three bet everytime?

3betting every time you enter a hand behind an opener is a combination of spew (when you're 3betting when you shouldn't) and playing tight weak (folding when you shouldn't).

I agree w always open raising in HE games.

3betting isn't the size of the raise it's another way to say reraising preflop. the big blind is considered the 1st bet then if someone raises thats a 2bet then if you reraise the opener that would be considered a 3bet. opening to 3x the big blind when folded to is fine but if you playing lower stakes there is really no need. IMO it is better to open your stronger hands for a bigger size bet and your weaker hands for less or you can often go ahead and limp with them.
