Now i wouldnt say 3's deserve to lose to 2's as it should RARELY happen but never add yourself to a donkfest..

you didn't say if you were HU or anything. if you were HU then all in pre is standard and you just got unlucky. if it was a ring game then 3s are an insta fold for me unless I'm short or on the button/sb. in which case getting it all in with 33 is -ev and pretty bad play on your part.

3's are never a standard AI unless u have like 2 bbs left its suicidal to shove with that shit :/

twos and threes are always trickly like to see flop first before i committ

poker can be brutal sometimes. just gotta stick with it! keep grinding!

you don't play much HU do you? full ring its an insta fold, 6 max its an open from any position to set mine only and HU then its totally standard to 3bet shove/open shove with any pocket pair lower than 66 as long as you're not too deep obviously. getting in it with 33 with anything less than 12bbs in a sit n go or tourney is just retarded though.
