I'm on the button with and i'm facing a raise from the fairly short stacked MP1 (actually UTG+1).
He's previously folded to a 3 bet from me.
So i 3 bet him again, with the intention of calling if he 4 bets.
Incidentally, i only noticed afterwards that the original raiser had 4x'd, should this affect my decision at all?
Online MTT (PokerStars $4.40)
Early stages of the tournament
Blinds are 60 / 120 / 15
my opponent is 23 / 20 over 84 hands



[converted_hand][hand_history]Poker Stars, $4 Buy-in (60/120 blinds, 15 ante) No Limit Hold'em Tournament, 8 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

UTG+2: 8,122 (67.7 bb)
MP1: 2,690 (22.4 bb)
MP2: 2,715 (22.6 bb)
MP3: 2,355 (19.6 bb)
CO: 4,799 (40 bb)
Hero (BTN): 5,153 (42.9 bb)
SB: 6,018 (50.2 bb)
BB: 4,301 (35.8 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with T:heart: T:spade:
[color="grey"]UTG+2 folds[/color], [color="red"]MP1 raises to 480[/color], 3 folds, [color="red"]Hero raises to 1,140[/color], 2 folds, [color="red"]MP1 raises to 2,675 and is all-in[/color], Hero calls 1,535

Just wondering if this is pretty standard or, ere there any better options for me here?

Not folding, NH.

Can make 3bet bit smaller to something like 880/call

Can fold to SB/BB if they decide to 4bet

an open to 4x should defo affect your decision, if its not standard for the player then its heavily weighted towards AA/KK

if thats normal then line seems fine

Villian did indeed have pocket kings, although villian's bet sizes seemed to vary quite randomly in previous hands.
