UTG: $6.52 (65 bb)
MP: $21.99 (220 bb)
CO: $8.46 (85 bb)
BU (Hero): $11.44 (114 bb)
SB: $16.43 (164 bb)
BB: $27.49 (275 bb)
Pre-Flop: ($0.15) Hero is BTN with 9♥ 3♣
Preflop I'm usually folding garbage even though I'm on the button, but the blinds are more than full stacks so I'm taking a shot thinking that maybe they'll play relatively straightforward. If one 3-bets, I fold.
3 players fold, Hero raises to $0.25, SB calls $0.20, 1 fold

Flop: ($0.60) K♠ 3♠ J♣ (2 players)
SB checks,
Flop has two broadway so I C-bet, repping one of the two.

Turn: ($1.20) 9♣ (2 players)
I hadn't realized until this point that I had paired the bottom card on the flop, and now I have two pair.

SB raises to $1.78, Hero calls $1.18
SB checkraises. If he had a set of 3s, I'd have expected this on the flop.
In retrospect, there are other hands SB could have but at this point I'm guessing a good King so I call.

River: ($4.76) 8♥ (2 players)
SB bets $3, Hero calls $3
Still putting him on a good King, so I just call his bet.

No reads; this is Zoom and I haven't been playing much lately and am only a few hands into the session.
