Default Re: PF Question About Coldcalling UTG Raises On The Button

I'm just gonna tell you what I would do. If I was going to play I would 3 bet, I certainly wouldnt be crazy about this play, but I do think its better than calling. If you just call you are going to miss this flop around 2/3rds of the time, and you will have to fold. This means if the villain has AQ,AJ,AT, and the flop comes rag rag rag, he will end up with the pot instead of you, but if you invest one extra small bet preflop and reraise instead of Cold calling now you get to win all those pots, and if your against the right opponent youll even win the pot if he has AK and folds unimproved on the turn. For one extra small bet I think this advantage is worth it. If however the villain is an extremely tight raiser, folding would be better than 3 betting or coldcalling, but you dont really have a strong read on the villains raising range so I would 3 bet it.
