Good morning, my fellow poker players!

Got 10$ to play at 10NL, after few hands I had AA, standard raise of 30cents, everyone folds.

After few folds, got KK. (I used google translate for the hand transcript)

So... you face a 3bet double your initial bet but you still call. Of course, you have a straight draw.
Yes, I know that for most people to call 40cents a 80cents 3bet is very cheap but I wonder if the same yould apply at 100$ NL.

Should my 3bets be more higher? I 3bet 3 times and he still called. Yes, the first 3bet was vey low, he had to pay me very cheap to see the flop.

Thank you!!

*** FLOP ***HERO: give raises $ 0.40 to $ 0.80

this raise is not good.
more big raise you need.


*** TURN *** [Th 7d 6d] [Tc]
HERO: raises $ 0.40 to $ 0.80

same.

why 3bet so small?
if you want to build bigger pot, make it big - pot sized or something like that
if you think he might have trips, then just call & reevaluate on later street
and pay attention to their stack size compared to ours, so we can calculate possibilities when push fold situations come on later street - value your good hands big & keep your losses small

Thank you all for your replies.

I will pay attention to the bet-sizing of 3bet.

I don't betsize accordingly to my cards, so that I don't get predictable, I see people bet more with premium and standard with other cards. Or vice-versa.

I was applying 3bet like double the initial raise, because I thought that doubling the raise will make my opponent fold his hand.
I asked a friend about my hand and he said something like you should've raised like 1.3-1.5$.

I remember some time ago I bluffed the river with all-in, villain folded, and he showed me JJ. That was very lucky, because he had me beat. But other instances I was bluffing by my unrealistic bet-size according to the pot. I wasn't stealing the blinds, I was stealing the pot! (it was a cash-game).

Do these situations apply at higher limits? Because if I play at 100$NL (1$/2$ blinds) and I raise with 6$ and someone 3bets me 12$ it's much more consistent than cents tables. Of course, if I apply bankroll-management rules, I should have 10000$ in my account for those tables, and a 12$ 3bet would seem easy to call.

You see all sorts of crazy play at the higher limits as well. What can I say - a lot of poker players are crazy. However, you're also going to find many more better players at the higher limits. So you're much less likely to see 2X 3-bets. You're right - it's too easy to call.
