I feel like these hands aren't in line with your previous statement that you're maniacal.
At a guess, I prob run something like 40/30/10 or even 45/35/10 at this particular game (1-2, low rake, super soft) even when it's 9-10 handed. I think I can tighten up quite a bit and still be the most LAG player at the table almost all the time. Generally I have been auto 3-betting JJ+/AQ+ vs. almost anyone except the most passive nits, and certainly many worse hands, and for sure I'm the only player in this game who even has a 4-bet bluffing range. This particular session, I didn't really out of line often, and only 3-bet twice in 7 hours (AK, AQ) and one 4-bet (the AK hand posted above).
yah the whole c/c c/c, donk river line isn't really a great line or an easy line to balance with.
For sure, I agree. Yeah I guess I am messing up the whole idea of protecting c/c ranges if I'm donking river. And yes, I'm asking to be tripled by anyone paying attention when I check rivers. I guess if people adjust I'm going to have to really go the distance and c/c or c/r more rivers with big hands. But I guess to me it seems like the proper application is to A. simply protect my flatting range when I call OOP and B. just getting to rivers with overpairs with surprising lines once in a while is good for my overall range.
In the QQ/JJ hands above, it was quite obvious both villains were shocked to see me have overpairs. More importantly, I think, when draws brick my perceived range has a lot of bluffs, so even if I'm not actually balancing my range, I can get heroed by worse hands if they think I am polarized.
I appreciate the feedback though, really. I don't want to try to justify my plays, because I want serious critiques. Just explaining my thought process -- correct where I'm wrong.
