Flop Analysis
Betting small is the preferred play here. After BB checks, we have a significant range advantage on this paired board and can profitably bet our entire range for a small sizing. **Ranges:** We have more medium pocket pairs (TT-JJ) and suited connectors that connect with this board than the BB's polarized 3-bet range. BB's check often indicates they have missed with hands like AK/AJ or are protecting a capped range. **Sizing:** A 33% pot sizing (6.8BB) is ideal on paired boards. It forces Villain to continue with many marginal hands while allowing us to cheaply deny equity to their overcards like AcJh or KdJs. **Blockers:** Our KdTd is particularly effective as a bluff here because we block Villain's potential KxQs or TxQs trips while unblocking their air that will fold to a single bet. --- > **Takeaway:** On paired boards in 3-bet pots, use a small sizing to leverage your range advantage against a capped opponent.
