In this case good size of a 3bet is between pot size bet and pot + his bet. So it's somewhere in the middle between 23K and 33K. I would say that something between 25K and 35K is better. Exact size of the bet depends on opponents stack and agression factor and how often he folds to 3bets. If he has a big stack or he's chipleader of the table and also he's some sort of a calling station, then I would adjust the size of the 3bet even to something like 38K. IF he's not that aggressive and has a small stack then it's good to adjust size of the 3bet to something like 24K. When you did the maths, ask yourself: Do you want him to fold or do you want him to call? What conditions will be comfortable for him if you want him to call? If you'll press too hard - he will run, if you'll press too weak - you will gain less. In general the answer was written by Sun Tzu in his "The art of War" It's a good book for war generals and it's also a good book for poker players. Cause many things are equal in most of the competitions, and if you know how good your guns and soldiers are, then it's time to think about your opponent.
