AA facing turn shove

AA facing turn shove

3/3 with 6 dollar straddle button so itÂ’s 3/3/7 with 6 of the 7 as fake straddle money

$420 effective with villain(BTN), $900 effective with utg+2, CO

Hero(AhAc) utg +1 raise to 25
3 calls - utg+2, CO, BTN

Pot ~$100
Flop - 10d7c5s
Checks through to BTN, who bets 85
Hero calls, others fold

pot ~$270
Turn - 4d
Hero checks
Villain shoves 310

Hero??

Is it too tight to fold here with aces in low stakes live? I feel like when I have over pairs on these boards I run into sets and random two pairs a lot and not enough bluffs especially multi-way.

You beat plenty of value. He probably thinks KT or JJ is the nuts and is protecting his hand. I would call pretty quickly.


You unblock diamonds too. You have to call but don't be upset if you lose

Welcome to the forum, OP. I cleaned up your post a bit.

Why did you check flop? Board is really dry, but there should be some value out there, and if it checks through, you are letting Vs gain a lot of free equity. Even on a board this dry, Vs 3 Vs there is a lot of board coverage.

I don't think there's much chance of V having diamonds, given the large sizing OTF, but there are definitely worse 1 pair hands in his range, and the bet is barely an overbet.


I think this is played fine. There can definitely be some backdoors played this way but there shouldn't be many two pair unless he's got 54s or overcalling T7s. Flop check-call is fine; now call again. What stronger hands do you have here apart from TT and 77?


Can't fold. Must call.


Thanks for the edits and replies!

My check on the flop was mainly for pot control. I think that if I bet and get raised by the big stacks behind, I would be in a bad position if they fire next two streets for stacks on a board with little obvious bluffs. I think I would make a bet in a 3 way pot but 4 way I just play a lot tighter

Some additional history with V for more context. I was in 2 hands with V earlier in which they bluffed like 50-75% pot on the river leaving some behind which I called.

On the one hand, it seems unlikely he'd bluff again, especially into three people OTF and would not shove stack on the turn with anything less than AT+ which I block some combos of. OTOH, there is probably enough combos of JJ and AT that I have to call here cause this is pretty much top of my range


It's hard to pot control when you're first to act 4 ways. Pot control would be betting around 35 or 40.

Are you saying this villain bluffed you twice already on the river? If he did you should snap call, idc if he left a few dollars behind last time or not.


OP, please don't reference results (including your last action) until after discussion dies down, or at least 24 hours after posting the original hand history. Results bias people's advice. I edited them out.
