I think that preflop I maybe call raises too much, so here is an example of a hand where I wasn't sure what to do preflop.
The first two villains that limp in are both donks and the villain that raised is a decent reg, quite TAG and he folds to 3bets a high percentage of the time. I don't have any notes on how much the donks fold to 3-bets but usually donks don't fold much pre.
UTG ($20)
UTG+1 ($20)
MP1 ($20)
MP2 ($89.91)
MP3 ($6.16)
CO ($21)(
BTN ($20)
SB - Hero ($21.18)
BB ($20)
Hero is dealt 88
Preflop ($0.30)
3 folds, MP2 calls $0.20, MP2 calls $0.20, CO raises to $1.20, 1 fold, hero?
The raiser in the CO is a good target to 3bet especially as he is very likely isolating the limpers and he's in late position. The only thing is it is quite likely the first donk will not fold to the 3bet since they usually don't and he has a large stack, but maybe the fact that he limped in raither than raising means he won't call the 3-bet. Not worried about donk 2 since he has a tiny stack. So what is the best option here?
a) 3 bet
b) call
c) fold
Please give your reasoning behind your answer
