    First one, I sometimes like to check this flop but given your description of the player betting is likely also fine. The turn check is good, I doubt there's much value in betting. Call is fine because he bet so small. I like the small value bet on the river too because he'll sometimes make a crying call with a paired ace or whatever. You have to fold to the shove though. It's too likely he has the A/K .

    Second hand you have like 23% equity against even a relatively tight range as far as I can work out
    Code:
    Board: 6h 8h 2h Jc
    Dead:  
    
    	equity 	win 	tie 	      pots won 	pots tied	
    Hand 0: 	22.944%  	22.94% 	00.00% 	           212 	        0.00   { QcQh }
    Hand 1: 	77.056%  	77.06% 	00.00% 	           712 	        0.00   { JJ, 88, AhTh, Ah9h, Ah7h, Ah5h, Ah4h, Ah3h, KhQh, KhJh, KhTh, QhJh, QhTh, JcTc, JhTh, JsTs, Th9h, 5h4h, Ah8c, Ah8d, Ah8s }
    so you should be calling at least. If we call I cant see us getting away on the river no matter what though so I probably just shove now cos I'm a monkey like that.

    Irisheyes, thanks for the quick reply.
    why is JsTs and JcTc in your range?
    Jc is on the board actually, I assume you meant JdTd?
    Are these bluffs/semibluffs on villains part?
    Turn is either shove or fold I agree, I wasn't sure if there was a lot in villains range I beat, must think in terms of equity lol.

    Ok, without the JT thing I get 20% equity but w/e.

    With Ah8x in his range your implying he's calling pre with AXo, I'm not sure he does, since a calling range of all pairs 22-88, A8o-AJo, A2s-ATs and 98s-JTs is 9% (I assume he's 3betting higher value cards, but also calling a lot more if the above hands are also going to be in his range)

    I dont think a 17/15 is calling that often vs me in the BB.
    Without A8o in his range I get 10% equity.

    What do you think?
