That was a helluva hand. Stuart Langford opened the cutoff, and having hardly played a hand, I figured three betting the button would take it down most of the time - I had 33. Stuart called, and the flop was K32 rainbow. Stuart lead out for 500 into an 875 pot, and I raised to 1400, he 3b to 3300, and I 4b to 7000 - he folded AK face up. Eff stacks were 20k.
So the question is, should I have flatted his 3b, or carried on to try and get it in. I figured I pretty much had the nuts - I didn"t include AA or KK in his range as I"m sure he would have 4b pre.... so his value range at this point was limited to AK or 22, or an unlikely pocket pair coupled with disbelief, none of which he should really go broke with in that spot. On reflection, and with the benefit of hindsight, I didn"t need to protect against anything, and would probably have got something on later streets by flatting the 3300 3bet.
