    Default 6max 50nl KK in 3bet pot

    This hand is from Bodog so no HH. Villan is tagg regular, I am tagg.

    BB is $.50

    Villain is UTG ($100)
    Hero is BB ($150)

    Hero is dealt [KdKs]

    Villain raises to $2, utg + 1 calls $2, 3 folds, Hero raises to $10, Villain calls, utg + 1 folds.

    ***FLOP*** ($22.75)
    7c5c2s

    Hero bets $20, Villain calls $20

    ***TURN*** ($62.75)
    Ac

    Hero??

    To me, your bet-sizing is all wrong. 3-betting 20xBB after an UTG raise will generally result in 99% folds at 50NL, me thinks, meaning the only hand calling you is AA, because everyone else will put you on AA/KK.

    Then, your flop bet is too big. Because of that, your turn options really suck. B/F $25? C/F? C/C up to $20? I guess C/F because your hand is pretty much face up anyway. Obviously he can't have AcKc, so I'm guessing he can only call the flop with AA or maybe he has QQ; I think he'd have to fold any other hands so the turn doesn't change anything.

    I dunno, someone will analyze this better than me but that's my take.

    Oh, he could also have KcKh, which means he likes that turn card a lot better than you...

    Bet on flop is too big imo. He's not folding anything that beats you and not calling with anything that's worse, maybe QQ but like baudib said your hand is face up. I used to b/f in this spot on the turn but it got too expensive because they always had it and always popped it so I think c/f is fine.
