Results 1 to 4 of 4

    Default 99 button open raise, BB 3-bets ($27)

    If I remember correctly, BB's stats were something like 64/0 up to this point (probably less than 20 hands though). What do you do in response to the 3-bet?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, 27 Tournament, 25/50 Blinds (8 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    BB (t2460)
    UTG (t2225)
    UTG+1 (t2800)
    MP1 (t1245)
    MP2 (t1575)
    CO (t1315)
    Hero (Button) (t1395)
    SB (t485)

    Hero's M: 18.60

    Preflop: Hero is Button with 9, 9
    5 folds, Hero bets t150, 1 fold, BB raises to t450, Hero ????

    hmmm
    Might be loose but I'd just push the rest in. Expect to not get any two broadways to fold though, which means a lot of the time you are flipping.

    No FE, vs a passive opponent who has yet to raise pre, you're likely up against a strong range, your M isn't in desperation mode yet = fold & wait for a better spot

    Unless you'd been raising the button non-stop or there's some other reason his 3-bet range would have widened I think I'd let it go. Hard to imagine too many Ax or low pairs in his 3-bet range, so you're probably a coin-flip at best. Even giving him a range of 22% you only have barely 55% equity which is probably still short of what you need. And I think 10% or less is a more realistic figure.
