1/2 - AKo on monotone flop, no draw

Villain is a Norwegian red pro, big loser over a large sample size in my db, running 25/21/2.8, raises 21% utg, barrels 45/55/53% on each street. My notes say that he thinks I'm a huge station. But I've been playing with him on several tables for awhile and haven't gotten out of line.

the fact that he thinks you're a massive station and your hand is slightly underrepped to what he thinks your range might be makes me want to call.

i was gonna say i don't like the flat pre, but given the dynamic it's probably a good play.

your commitment decision is on the turn, and anyways i'd be comfortable calling down versus an aggro losing playing in a spot like this.

Actually the fact that he thinks zook's a massive station should make you want to fold; he needs to be bluffing here some for it to be a call.

I'd fold the turn.

You don't think he'd be vbing thinner due to zook's massive stationyness?

you only need 30% equity to call

hmm almost certain id call a decent amount of the time if i got to the river this way. since i think aj and aq still vb.

If it wasn't four to a straight, I can see AQ value betting here a lot more.

But the fact that its four to a straight, and monotone and that there are tons of two pairs that he doesn't expect hero to fold, I don't think we can expect worse to be value betting here that often at all.

I'd dump this.

apologies i 4got theres a 4 card draw (i noticed it yday )

seems like a close turn decision and pretty easy riv fold

oh shit i did not see the 4 straight either. yah im folding the river.

I think turn is really close

- if we call, we will be in bad situation on 7, 9, J, Q + every heart (I think he will barrel all these cards)
- we can't improve to relatively good hand (+ K can sometimes makes a straight for villain)

just fold this river

The SPR really sucks for your hand here when you flat. SPR = 10 with one caller and 17 with none(which isn't horrible). If you 3bet to 11.5x then your SPR is a very favorable 5.
I know you're assumption is he's folding a lot of worse hands, but 21% UTG range warrants a wider 3bet range by you.

I didn't include that he folds to 3bets 70%, so I really hate 3betting this hand in this position regardless of SPR.

Turns close to a fold, river definitely is.
