Welcome thanks for posting

We have a cash game hand analysis forum you may wish to post this there.

The Key to this hand is to consider the range of hands the Villain would lead this turn and then call or fold and the range they shove when we raise.

So we can input hands into the cardschat odds calculator and think about the best actions versus that range.

Such as AdAc which is 51%
AcKh -44.55% AcQh-43.74%

Equilab is a free program that allows us to calculate our over all odds including the entire possible estimated range of V including AcQc KK JJ etc

Hope this helps

Hey Hey Hey

Welcome to CardsChat.
You played this hand fine. A bit of a loose preflop call. Which even though had flopped you a very decent hand, stkill it was almost a coin flip on the flop. Any pair on the table and you're out. Any club and you're out. So usually i would recomment folding KJ preflop here. But if you have some reads on a villain if hes being aggro then it might be fine. Flop is still dangerous.
And as folks said there is a separate sub-forum here for hand analysis. Check it out.

Standard Play Post Flop. Pre flop is an indicator of a good hand from the opponent cause he ONLY 3 bet like 2.5 your raise giving you good price to call. You can also do that to other opponents. Can't blame your opponent in calling tho.

I honestly probably would of folded pre, maybe I'm a bit tight but SB 3betting range against UTG is incredibly tight, many players won't have bluffing range especially in this situation, villains range is likely JJ-AA, and AK all of which have you dominated. If you flop TP how will you react to another bet on the flop and then again on the turn.

I agree preflop is likely a fold. Hou are opening to .25, so maybe your range is wider than mine and KJ becomes a defend. Despite that, as other mentioned, SB typically has few to no bluffs here pre.

Flop V bets small, which I think is odd given the wet flop. You do have to raise for value/protection, and when he shoves it becomes a call since you block sets, and V can have SOME semi bluffs.

But as mentioned before your equity is never that great.
