Re: Live 30/60 against 2+2er

Actually, in a 3 way pot, my goal if I were UTG and had AK would not be to extricate the button. I want him in for the ride preferrably to the river. Of course, I want him out if he has more than 8 outs but that's just a pipedream because he will never drop a draw that big. The usual scenario where the button gets extricated by a bet and raise is if he has a 2,3, 4, or 5 outer. But in fact, I want him in with those hands on a pot of this size. So, I let Red bet, button calls or raises and I then either 3 bet/raise or raise/coldcall. Both oppoents collectively are now putting in a total of at least 4 bets on the flop when I have much the best of it facing say 7 bad cards on turn and river i.e. Red has 2 outs twice and button has 5 outs twice.
IMO, limiting the field is a concept that is important but is given too much emphasis on these boards.

I agree with everything you said if UTG has AK or AA. But I don't agree if he has AJ or AQ as I don't want to get 3 bet on flop or raised on turn.
