KQo OOP against aggressive player
villain is slightly loose and aggressive, something like 24/11/3.4
Calling down after the flop sucks because I don't know what I need to hit to win. Just folding seamed to be weak. Do you think my donk bet is +EV against an aggressive player who could raise me with QQ or JJ? Or should I just fold and move on? I think this is a tought spot and I could lose a lot of money here unless I can play perfectly postflop. So, I think folding maybe the best option here. Thoughts?

His PFR is normal, so we have to think we're probably up against TT-AA or AK. Maybe AQ if he's loose with his 3-bets. We're ahead of TT-QQ and way behind KK, AA, AK. In fact, now that I think about it more, this seems like a good time to use a WA/WB line - check/call, check/call, bet. |

Re: KQo OOP against aggressive player
How low of a pair will he 3-bet here? If we assume AK,AQ, AA-99, you're looking at:
Losing to AK (6), AQ (9), AA (3), KK (1) = 19 combos Beating QQ (3), JJ (6), TT (6), 99 (6) = 21 combos Since he'll raise us with a worse hand or a better one, I don't want to give him a chance to fold us out. Looks like a quintessential WA/WB siuation to me. |

Re: KQo OOP against aggressive player
Hmmmmmm. I'm gonna propose a radical line here. 3bet the flop and fold to a cap. If he calls, lead the turn and fold to a raise. Or you could just play this SA/WWWWWB and call it down.

What do you put the opponent on that hero can be only slightly ahead here? |

What I was trying to get across here is that in no way am I playing this hand c/c, c/c, bet unless the turn/river comes running K's. If I decide to call it down, I'm not betting the river. -Jaran |

Re: KQo OOP against aggressive player
Given his TAGish stats and the fact that he's on the button, i'd say his 3-betting range is reasonably wide. Thus i want to also jump on the WA/WB bandwagon.
