Axs/JJ+/66,77, TT but why does it matter?

[Warpe]

why does it matter?

Because of what this hand told me about his range.

[Irisheyes]

AA-JJ and all the sets.

[gabe]

big spades make sense too

Hint: I didn't win this hand.

92o, yey.

[Warpe]

for the split.

I guess why I found this interesting was that it illustrates really well how raising with SCs can disguise your hand.
No way did I put him on the flopped straight, and I imagine the reverse would also be true.

It was also interesting to see the effect this showdown had on the table. His p/f raises started getting called or reraised a lot more often and he left the table shortly afterwards, which is something I just didn't understand because he had set things up perfectly for getting action on his monsters, but he might've been leaving for other reasons.

But thats such a small portion of his range our brains ignore it.
