    Default KK 150ish deep 100nl wtf river

    Villian is running tag and so am i if he's paying attention. Flatted pre because the blinds were squeeze happy regs with 3bet's of 10%+ each.
    I feel like given action pre and the fact everything missed I should probably call here yeah?

    I call because that makes no sense whatsoever. 55 is the only hand I can think of he'd play like this that beats us.
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    I fold.

    Unless you have a read that he's capable of using his whole stack. Saying he's running tag offers no reads for a spot like this. So basically he's a 100NL reg that just put in his whole ~150bb stack on the river with a stupid line, ime that's the nuts way too often.

    pre: I don't think sqeeuze happy blinds are gonna sqeeuze an UTG open that much to warrant calling and risk being multiway postflop.

    flop: I'm torn between raising or calling flop with BB still to act and lots of pairs+gutshots in his range.

    turn: fine

    river: Sick. Is a TAG really c/cing 55 on the turn? Only hand I can think of is like the flopped nuts, but turn is like such an obvious bet.
    These are hard spots though because a lot of people just have the nuts 100% here. If I'm a little tilted I'd definately call, otherwise I just don't know, I'd go with my feeling at the moment.

    doesnt really make sense to me why he would use this line with his strong hands so id call.
    Jman: every time the action is to you, it's an opportunity for you to make the perfect play.

    I would 3 bet hes preflop and flop bets and then go all in on the turn.

    Given hero is a tilter, fold, log off tables, and focus on school.

    Wow ummm ok first off I don't care if regs behind are squeeze happy, the opener is UTG which makes people way less likely to squeeze as it is. Maybe if this was CO raise, you flat on button, that's a different story.

    3bet pre.

    As played, raise floppp.

    As played, wow you're mega under-repped and his line makes no sense. Not sure I can find a fold here, after I played this hand this way.
