    Default 50nl-JJ IP 3b Pot **Super Standard Spot**

    only like 10-15 hands into the session and the guy looked reggy (full stack, 20/20 stats or something), but this was my first hand with him and this was his first 3b.

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (5 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    UTG ($86.30)
    MP ($50)
    Hero (Button) ($50)
    SB ($36.20)
    BB ($50)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with ,
    2 folds, Hero bets $1.50, 1 fold, BB raises to $5, Hero calls $3.50

    Flop: ($10.25) , , (2 players)
    BB bets $6, Hero calls $6

    Turn: ($22.25) (2 players)
    BB bets $13 Hero has $39 left behind

    So, obv. the K is going to be a barreling card for a lot of villains but 1) i feel like this turn decision is a decision for stacks and if i call here and the river's a blank and he shoves i'm gonna be put in a bad spot and 2) villain is basically an unknown who just looks like a reg, so i don't even know if he's 3b'ing light much less barreling scare cards (at 50nl there are a lot of really big spewtard regs in 3b pots but there are also a lot of fit or cbet/then fold regs too).

    I hate these spots. I'm folding the turn without knowing more about this guy (at least that he can 3-bet light from the blinds.) I'm hating it though and waving my cock around in a future pot to make up for it.

    I mean once you call the turn, if he's good, he can just blast most rivers since you have like 0 hands better than JJ (maybe QQ at a push) here. Vs an known aggro reg I'd consider just calling down, but that seems spewy without more info and I don't like calling the turn and folding the river.

    Fold vs an unkown at these stakes is best imo.

    I think at this level at least that if he's bluffing here most people bet a lot more, he seems to be setting up for a nice size river shove and wants to keep you in the pot by betting small.

    Without any reads I just fold here
