    I'd like to meet Jesus. Not because people claim he was the son of god, but because he could turn water into wine. A man like that is good to know, because you never know when you'll need a bottle of wine or an extra nail.

    I think that was pretty passive. Maybe try and 3 bet the flop.

    Any non min 3 bet on the flop might as well be a push because over 2/3rds of hero's stack would be committed. I think that since we probably dont get called by anything we beat on the flop, calling and pushing over the turn bet could be best to maximize profit against worse hands. Depending on reads it is either a fold or push on the turn but i dont think 3-betting the flop is the best play.

    I agree that 3 betting here on the flop is committing ourselves to the pot.
    On the turn, isn't this a fold most of the time? Most of the time he'll be showing you 2 pairs or better and sometimes (depends on opp) a flush draw.

    it's a somewhat drawy board, any reads?

    Not really. Like everyone else at Absolute he tends to limp a lot.

    What do you mean by that? Especially "68 deep"? Just that i'm at about 1/3 a buy in, or something else?

    Thanks guys.

    So it sounds like the concensus is to re-raise and 3-bet the flop raise, but due to stack size that means push over the top. Correct?

    68 deep is 68BBs ie its basically vs a shorty who could have a much larger range given that most shorties are just terrible players

    You have initial $68BB's in stack and you are covered OR villain has 68BB and you have him covered = 68 deep

    If blinds were 0.25/0.50, then you'd be 136 deep. You'd have more money behind and tougher decision to make.
