[ChrisG1986]

Hi guys, this is my first attempt at one of these and any help would be much appreciated - whether in relation to the hand itself or how to correctly post etc. Also, if someone could recommend a hand convertor that would be great, I tried following the link in the posting guidelines but it doesn't seem to work.

Seat 9

UTG raises 3BB, folded to Villain 1 whocalls. Folded to Hero, who re-raises 6BB, called by Villain 2, UTG folds, Villain 1 calls. 3-way to flop.

hard to tell but i think bet 9bb on flop and jam turn as played, but your 3bet should be bigger. like 7.2-8bb

Part of the description is unclear. For example, when you say "UTG raises 3BB" the literal meaning is that his bet size is 4BB. But more often, people raise *to* 3BB. This doesn't matter as much as when you "re-raise 6BB" because at that point, depending on the actual bet sizes, the amount in the pot can be quite different, and so can the stack to pot ratios.

Why is villain 2 first to act after the flop and turn but villain 1 is first to act on the river?

yes, definitely raising larger preflop. Also, and someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it makes it easier to describe your bets post flop in terms of pot size rather than bb's. Regardless, I am putting in a large raise on the flop (probably like 3/4 pot at least) and then shoving on the turn.
