Hi guys,

Here's a kind of spot I'm not comfortable playing and I hope someone could help.
CO seems to be reggish with RFI 22% from CO (small sample tho) et folding 66% to 3B.

So here is my main concern :
Vs this type of player I'd 3B in the SB with a range like

and assume CO is calling with a range like

So if we put this 2 ranges in equilab we have a small range advantage preflop :

**Equity** Win Tie

MP2 56.49% 54.62% 1.86% { 99+, AJs+, A5s-A2s, KJs+, QTs+, JTs, T9s, 98s, 87s, AJo+, KQo }
MP3 43.51% 41.65% 1.86% { JJ-55, AQs-ATs, KTs+, QTs+, J9s+, T8s+, 97s+, 86s+, 76s, AQo-AJo, KJo+ }

On this particular flop nothing really change if that villain has gained a bit of equity

Board: KhTc9c
Equity Win Tie
MP2 54.35% 52.29% 2.06% { 99+, AJs+, A5s-A2s, KJs+, QTs+, JTs, T9s, 98s, 87s, AJo+, KQo }
MP3 45.65% 43.59% 2.06% { JJ-55, AQs-ATs, KTs+, QTs+, J9s+, T8s+, 97s+, 86s+, 76s, AQo-AJo, KJo+ }

So my question here is how do you approach this kind of spot where both players are close in equity and neither has a real range advantage. What would be your flop strategy in this kind of situation.

Thoses are the toughest spot to play for me in my progression as a poker player.

P.S: FWIW I timed down fold the flop but this is really not the topic of this HH
Thanx !
