  2. Whats the question?
  3. Pre - I'd raise to 3x or pot, but 4x at this level is often just going to put you playing out of pos in a multiway pot where your bets will have to be bigger in relation to your stack...I'd want to have a little pot control here.

    Post - C-bet size is fine. When he raises, I think I'd go ahead and flat...again for pot control, and you obv have more than the right price to call. Just prepare to fold a non-spade turn.

    I think my main issue would be that small 3-bet on the flop. It doesn't really accomplish anything...Of his options when you do that:

    1) You give him the option to shove, and 3-betting to call shove there is bad.

    2) If he calls, you're pretty paralyzed if a spade misses the turn.

    3) He's never going to fold because the 3-bet is so so small.

    Hope this helps.
