  1. besides TT you’re also going to be calling with w/e AXd you call pf with. I think JJ is also a call and everything worse is a fold.

  2. Preflop I prefer to fold or 4-bet. The default is actually to fold, but if EP opener is loose, and SB aware and taking advantage of this, its a fine spot to come over the top with a 4-bet. As played and given the loose EP player, postflop seem fine. SB is the player, who is most likely to have us dominated with QQ-AA. So when he gets out of the way, we are either against a set or a draw most of the time, and we are priced in to call it off.

  3. i'd see this as a matter of getting the proper odds for set-mining…but you'd have to fold if EP was to raise behind you, so perhaps just a fold? clear fold on the flop…EP is either crushing you with QQ or TT or at worst suited overs like maybe KQdd (which is still ahead at 52.63% (a-rag diamonds about the same)…you aren't getting enough equity against that range

  4. I don't think you can ever fold this in a vacuum, tbh. Price is just too good. If the villain is on the tighter side ( read; leaning towards sets ) you could make the fold.

  5. You're facing an UTG open and you're going to be OOP vs. that strong range. And now the SB is saying "I want to play a 3-bet pot OOP against an UTG range" when he 3-bets. So you're against like some gnarly ranges. Why not just flat your entire playable range here? By 4-betting or folding, don't you fold out a lot of hands with good equity and also allow UTG to play perfectly when you do have AA or KK? Like, what's your 4-bet bluffing range in this spot? Your value range is so narrow that you're face-up whenever you 4-bet. If you protect your flatting range here with AA, then you can induce UTG to 4-bet jam his KK and AK and you print money in that case, and can safely fold JJ without fear of being exploitable.
