Re: Overplayed, unlucky, or both?
When button 3-bets the flop, the range of hands I would put him on includes Q-Q, J-J, 6-6, Q-J, A-Q, K-Q, K-T, K-K and A-A as the most likely suspects. Since I'm out of position, and have just one pair, and could be in for a big loss if I catch an Ace if he has Q-Q, J-J, 6-6, K-T or A-A, I'd probably just call the 3-bet. I realize the player in the middle is wildish, but I still don't want to risk losing him drawing to the nuts.
Now when he raises on the turn, K-Q and K-K seem out of the question, leaving only hands that have me beat. When a Q comes on the river, seems like a good time to save $20 for a fruit plate.
