Barron's article on 3 betting preflop with KQ suited

[Gabe DV]

I had some problems with this article too. 3-betting when you know you are behind (and hoping it gets capped) to get odds for a draw later ignores one important fact--that you are putting 4 bets in preflop when you are way behind (this goes on Barron's assumption that these are tight players). Now I understand that after the flop you might have better odds to chase a draw, but it cost you 4 bets to get those odds! Even though the money ceases to be yours when you put it in the pot, it was yours when you made the decision.
This disagreement aside, I usually enjoy Barron's articles very much.
