When he 3 bets preflop, you should be playing for set value.

According to the 5/10 rule, OP shouldn't have made the second call to play for set value as villian's stack isn't large enough.

yes, but i was playing for 2 players stacks here. still a terrible call?

Hey CS,

Extremely easy fold. When he 3 bets preflop, you should be playing for set value. Also, what is with your reraise preflop? I'd make it at least $6.

yeah, i folded this super easy on the flop push. CO also folded. i'm assuming he also had a smaller pocket pair.

one more question...
given the way i played this preflop, what is your line if he checks the flop to me? check behind and try to keep the pot as small as possible? pot sized bet (same as a push given opponents stack sizes)? anything else?

Well, for one, you can't be sure that CO is calling behind you. And two, you are investing $8, which is more than 10% of your stack. And three, $8 is more than 10% of both villians stack combined. So, according to 5/10, yes it's a terrible call.
