I had a good hand preflop so I called to a quite high 3bet, hit top pair on the flop, but opponent raise 4/5 of the pot straight away so I got scared and folded. So my question is should I have called, maybe re-raised or folding was the right thing to do? Should I call if it would have been 3/5 pot bet? I folded because in my experience most people who raise really high preflop and flop have high pocket pairs.


Thank you for your help.

im folding KJsuited pre & prefer to call w/ AXsuited so we can draw w/ higher flush

Definately let it go pre, out of position there are very few good flops for us.

Well done for not making a preflop mistake roll into a multiple street mistake, and in future you won't make that initial mistake again.

I think it's best to turn off the hand before failure because you will not know what to do in failure if you hit something.
Firstly, it is necessary to observe how the opponent is in this game what are the hands that he is showing, because it is a pity to pay with this kj without even knowing why everything must have a reason. good luck.

I would have folded pre-flop. I don't disagree with folding post flop either unless I had a good read on my opponent.

Same here - fold preflop - unless it is a FT of mtt freeroll

lol easy fold preflop.
1) Your hand will have a bad kicker.
2) You OOP
3) UTG able to shove preflop
4) "Rule 5/10" not allow make a call hire

it is possible that he flopped a set, he probably got really excited that he flopped a set and made a huge bet right away. so my guess is that you folded a good fold :P

I'd fold for being out of position. but suited hand is very good for playing, the problem was that button 3bet.

Fold on the flop is obviously good. He might have AK or a set. After UTG raise and BU 3-bet I would get out straight away pre flop. Villain's range is top ~10% and for BU to 3-bet he should be similarly strong, possibly QQ, AQ or so.

KJs is one of those hands you can only play profitably from later position.

Now that I am thinking, if you had a read on both players being super LAG, you might try a 4-bet/fold pre-flop. But only if you have a very good read and know these two make this sort of play with any 2 cards.
