Hero's Sqeeze get's 4bet (AKs)

Results 1 to 12 of 12
  1. #1

    Default Hero's Sqeeze get's 4bet (AKs)

    MP (UTG1, in HH) is a 24/24 positionally aware TAGG over 90 hands. So his PFR from MP is probably more like 15-18. He's cbet and raised enough flops I think he's too aggressive, but I haven't seen anything show down where he's out of line.

    CO is a 60/30/4.4 maniac over 100 hands.


    $0.25/$0.5 No Limit Holdem
    6 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    UTG ($64.90)
    UTG 1 ($50.00)
    CO ($81.25)
    BTN ($100.20)
    Hero (SB) ($50.00)
    BB ($100.10)

    Pre-flop: ($0.75, 6 players) Hero is SB
    1 fold, UTG 1 raises to $1.75, CO calls $1.75, 1 fold, Hero raises to $7, 1 fold, UTG 1 raises to $16, CO folds, $9 to Hero ($43)?


    Question: what's Hero's best line against the TAGG rr here?

    Shove, but don't forget to fist pump.

    I think way more than not, he ends up isolating the terrible player with a good hand and a bloated pot. Not a bad thing at all imo.

    Yah I agree with this. There's no way squeezing this hand is bad, and yah far more often the opener will fold and fish will call.

    I might. I was probably too harsh. Something to think about. You really want to get involed against the fish more than you want to just take down the money in the pot. This is a feel spot for me.

    Also, in a live game the dynamic might be such that everyone backs off from blowing people off flops to keep the game "friendly" and the fish happy as they give it it away post-flop rather than feel like they're being whipsawed by a bunch of hyper-aggression.

    edit: I'll put this another way. I'm not thinking about balance, squeezing and other TAgg on TAgg violence stuff we can do while we jerk off to FPP porn. I'm thinking about ways to maximize my opportunities for the fish to make catastrophic mistakes for as much money as possible without giving too up too much value to the other players. I think of games like this as a big lottery for the fish's stack and I want to stuff as many of my tickets into the hopper as possible while the TAggs focus their attention on playing as many tables as possible.

    You have to look at the other side as well. Not all fish want to just c/c it off postflop. There is also the gambling types that love to big bet bluff you and get into pissing matches cause omg you could be bluffing.
