If you get called by what looks like to be a reasonable player (56 Hands 16/11/3) in the SB your alarmbells should go off. I wouldnt be to afraid of the BB coz he seems very passive, which also fits him playing to much out of the BB. If you then get 2 calls to a reasonable sized bet on a somewhat dry flop like this you should be even more afraid. The turn changes nothing. I think checking back and folding to a bet of the SB on river cant be to big of a mistake (obv reconsider if an Ace hits the river). He prolly shows JJ, KK, 44 sometimes AK. And check everything weaker. Of course the Bigblind can have the same hands altho his range is wider.

--- dont take what I say to serious. I prolly wouldnt fold and see the bad news w/ all my chips gone.

Bet, but be prepared to fold to a raise, imo.

We're still going to be good a lot of the time, but the board is dry enough for any raise to be at least KJ (but most likely a set).

Don't you think he would 3-bet JJ/KK/AK preflop? He 3-bets 4%. That's JJ+/AK.

I think we mostly have to worry about KJ and 44, but they'll reveal themselves after we bet.

If you check here, be prepared to call the river. Folding is giving up the best hand in most cases. It's very weak, imo.

If he 3bets JJ/KK pre I wouldnt fold turn or river because we only have to fear so little hands. But I would expect him to 3bet KJ more often then KK actually. But mb im just thinking to fancy for my limit :-D

The reason I was thinking KK, JJ is because he would not 3bet them on this flop hoping to let the aggressor do the betting for him. Wasnt thinking about the fact that both the hads often already jam preflop.

Standard bet. If you're raised, you can consider folding because it's unlikely someone who is calling the flop is jamming a draw or top pair here MW.
