PAHWM - things get weird with AA at 2/5...
2/5, $200 min, $1k max, 9 handed.
Reads:
Hero/UTG - recently joined the table a few orbits ago. Hasn't played many hands, mostly been TAG, showed down a few strong hands that raised pre but lost on a bad run-out. Somewhat stuck at this point. Recently topped off to $1k.
V1/MP - Appears to be a mid-30's gent from somewhere in the metro NYC area. A bit of a mouth-breather. Seen him drag a few pots with medium-strength hands. From the way he looks, how he talks, and the hands I've seen him play so far, my read is that he's LAG-ish, and an average at best player for 2/5. Sitting around $1500.
V2/SB - Younger Asian guy who bought in for the $200 min not long after hero sat down. His main strat appears to be jamming with any reasonable hand for max fold equity, and re-buying for another $200 if he loses. On his second buy in, having jammed and lost about an orbit ago. Sitting at $227.
Worth noting is that there was no high-hand promotion going on when this hand was played, so V's are not incentivized to call wider with drawing hands that are lower equity but could potentially make a high hand by hitting 1 or 2 outs.
OTTH:
Hero opens AhAd UTG to $20. UTG1 calls. V1 in MP calls. V2 in SB calls.
Flop ($80) - KhJh6c. SB x. Hero $20. UTG1 folds. MP calls. V2 raises to $200, leaving $7 behind.
Hero goes into the tank for what feels like about 30-45 seconds. Just about to fold when V2 says "clock".
Hero?
YanasaurBBQ and submersible put out good posts in this thread.
I disagree somewhat with submersible about preflop being meh from the T9hh Villain. I actually like the MP overcall preflop.
docvail isn't focusing on the right things. Villain played every street better than docvail did, and docvail is more interested in dissecting how badly than Villain played the hand on every street (Villain actually played every street better than docvail) instead of docvail trying sincerely to learn from his mistakes in this hand.

How would you have played the hand differently?
