This hand happened on a $5/10 Pstars table that had recently went from semi-tight to Tilt-A-Thon within the 10 minutes prior to this hand:

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
SB has Ks Kc (one pair, kings).
UTG+1 has Ac Jd (one pair, jacks).
Hero has 3c 3h (three of a kind, threes).
MP1 has Qd Js (one pair, jacks).
Button has 9c Ah (one pair, nines).
Outcome: Hero wins 32.50 BB. </font>

OK- I was certainly concerned that the SB may have held JJ, but once I was not re-raised on either the Turn ot River, I had to assume I was ahead. Yes, calling 3 bets pre with 33 is not in my usual aresenal, but DAMN what a nice pot! Thoughts?

I think your post flop play is good.

Pre-flop leaves something to be desired, however.

If you are sure the table is tilty I have no problem with the preflop call. If you expect to get at least 3-1 or 4-1 preflop odds, a table full of tilting crazies will make up for it in implied odds. A very high variance game of course, but a fun one:)
