I've been playing like a total nit (no PT but I'd guess I'm running around 16/13).
Villain has been on a mega-heater and hasn't lost a pot since he's gotten to the table. He seems like a pretty good tagg and hasn't been caught bluffing yet.
NL400 6-max
Hero has 850$ish
Villain has 780$ish
Hero is Btn, dealt :ac: :ad:
Villain (UTG) raises to 16$
2 folds
Hero raises to 58$
Villain calls
Flop (pot = 122$) : :3h: :5h: :8s:
Villain checks
Hero bets 105$
Villain raises to 722$ and is all in
Hero...
Call and expect TT+ and AKs/AQs
Raise to $90 pre-flop b/c stacks are so deep. As played puke and call. I think you'll see KK-TT here more than a set.
call sadly.
Boy this could be alot. It looks an awful lot like the big draw or AKs. Is he capable of repping a draw with a set here? I probably grit my teeth and call. Sometimes I am very surprised at what I see.
$90? that folds out so many hands that we want to call.Quote:

You have to tailor your pre-flop 3-bet sizing to stack sizes to deny implied odds. And play it the same with AKo, JJ+. $80 might be fine too, it depends on the opponent.Quote:

I suggested shoving as opposed to C/R since a heart will likely kill our action on the turn.
I was surprised when someone I respected said that shoving this deep was losing tons of value so I figured I'd post the hand.
Thx for the replies.
i would rather lead the flop if i were him
don't you lead way more than most ppl though?
Vs a nit I think it's too likely you get called down for pot control on this flop, allowing for scare cards to hit, whereas they'll always bet their overpair when checked to and have a tough time folding.
I used to always try to bet/3bet big draws and sets but I almost think it's gotten to be transparent.
I'd do this if he wasnt a reg, cuz most regs don't balance there lead out enough.Quote:

One time recently i was on the other end of this and was caught semi-bluffing, but the board was J97 with no flush draws and it was a 4-bet pot.
preflop call seems OK, getting ~18:1 in position vs. a nit.
this is the easiest call ever
easy call with AA
just for the sake of it :
what is BB threshold for folding AA on this board to a CR?
250BB? 400BB?
Obv there's no rule about this but I've been wondering about situations like this since reading about aba's kk into aa 300BB deep.
AA is not foldable here but KK would seem like a fairly standard crying fold for him this deep if you were both playing tight and respected each other--AA is way way stronger than KK/QQ facing a check-push in this situation. Because of this, I like a lead on the flop. If he raises, call and get it in on turn; if he calls, c/r turn.
Villain played this very badly if he had 35...
How else do you play it besides making an essential shove on the flop?Quote:
