Bare in mind most players are aware of the strength opening utg has. He knows you have a hand and he still 3bet massively. Hes not doing this because he doesnt want to see a flop. Hes doing this because you show strength opening utg and he thinks you cant pass. (thus thinking hes winning!)

I wouldn't give the average 40 comp player the credit of being able to notice that somebody has opened UTG and adjusted his bet size accordingly. I think they are more likely thinking along the lines of "Me have KK, me bet"

The only credit i gave the player is he was left from the ukipt just playing the £40 comp, so thought he may at least be more then a level 1-2 thinker. He folded the flop btw.

What are you trying to get called/raised by? One hand in AK, maybe a few more A rags (villain dependent) and obviously better hands.

I kinda like the donk in this spot actually. He big 3bets and gives it the staring down behaviour then snap mucks in position to one bet? Villain has no heart. Prob this guy got knocked out of ukipt and just sat there thinking fml I give up. Perhaps you shaking a bit. Should be easy to get staring types spazzing the flop and paying full compensation for flopping the nuts after bad call. Perhaps smaller 1,200 donk into staring individual imo. Sorry if wrong btw.

Yo, you said hero's hand looked like a mid pair and villain's hand looked like broadway cards. A hand that looks like a mid pair donking into a hand that looks like broadway cards on a broadway flop seems like a decent way to get action from a big raise starey man imo.

donking so small turns your hand so face up. Why would you do it from villains seat?

its 2 pair minimum. unless he has a set hes probably just going to call triggers massive alarm bells.

Betting so small is 99% of the time a way to get to cheap showdown.

not many people will fall for that line anymore. Its a bit james bond
