heybude:

For those who need the math he has 60 more behind.

If he had a pair, he would check, right? I assume he has AQ here. Even if we are behind, I would treat it as a coin flip preflop. But we are ahead a lot of times to push here.

I think your 3-bet size put you in this spot. I like $80 and $125-$150ish a lot better because they make this decision a lot easier.

1. So you really think facing any postflop decision is a mistake? I don't think anyone can really say "well i'd fourbet to 130 because we dont want him to lead the flop and force you off the hand."

2. Which do you think is a better size and why?

a) ur right- btw calling is also completely fine here

b) u literally only post in threads involving commitment decisions these days Fnord lol

its cause he read Ed Miller's new book and realized stack sizes and commitment threshold is so coooooooool.

to avoid bad beats dont play with jake janicek or sammy farha
