I dont have a read on the SB. What's the play against his flop minraise?

I would never 3-bet the flop if I was going to fold to a push. I'm not opposed to a few different lines here, but I would probably just call the minraise and play some poker on the turn.

OOP I tend to just go ahead and play for stacks here. The board is pretty draw havy and I don't mind just 3 betting the flop and feeling committed if he shoves. I just feel any other line always leaves you guessing and you really never know what card is bad for you. I could definitely live with myself if I stacked off here. Calling the minraise is a line I feel I used to take often here but unless the guy is a real nit you're probably better off just getting all of the money in and hoping for the best.

thanks for your answers.

My thought process was that i raised from the button and his minraise probably didn't mean much because he might have thought I was stealing. As the board was pretty draw heavy I didn't like to just call.

I understand your argumentation that I have to call after making the 3bet but i'm not so sure if i wanna play for stacks when 63BB deep so calling might be correct (I was in position).

Ah you were in position. My mistake. Then I probably like Dmunnes line better. Close for me though.

The fact that you raised from the button is even more reason to get it all in here. I probably call and let him fire the turn. Clearly you don't want to be stacking off light every time but by the same token you don't want to swing so far the other way that you make the game impossibly hard to play. Go broke here imo.

Just looked at it again. Shove this all in. I really don't think its close now that I think about it. You are not that far behind KJ and I think it's not very often you see KK or JJ here. This just screams draw.
