But why? Is that standard? I am not questioning the math, just trying to understand the logic behind the move. Is the thought that villian's range is smaller against the larger bet and if so, how much smaller would it get?

I could also see 77, JJ, AsXs (especially As5s) being in that range but doubt adding those hands lessens our chance of winning that much as we are ahaed of most of that range as well.

Yea, when I looked at the hand later I was thinking the same thing.
