Live ~ AA gets into weird situation.

5/5/10 ~ 9 handed

Eff 800
1 limper
utg+1 opens 50 (seems like a reg, maybe tight?)
H 3bets to 175 w/AA44hh in +2
2 cold callers (2 huge fish)
1 guy jams for 250
+1 calls
all call

5way Main pot 1250 side pot 0
K73r
UTG+1 looks at my chip count and donks 200?????
Hero??? we have like 550 left?
Are we supposed to call? fold? jam?
Btw, the 2 fishes have at least 1k behind eff vs +1, they have yet to act

Normally I snap fold when there's no sidepot, but wtf is this small sizing? nutted(set)? AKxx? There are 2 huge fishes behind, does he really bet this small against them???
I mean I'd understand his sizing vs me in HU only.

This board barely has any draws, if utg has KK he can bet tiny begging for action.

That said at this spr I am not folding.

If +1 checked, we were supposed to jam right?


Can’t fold, might as well jam it, just one of those hands.

β€œPlayer’s checks!”


He can bet this small because their is no side or

No incentive to bluff anyone as he still has to beat the other guy all in

That said, he can still deny equity vs ur hands with Kx, it’s whether or not he knows this.

Would be a huge exploit to fold in theory, up to you in the moment vs the player read.


Be funny if he had AA73ds.

As echemondo said, it would be an incredible save of 55 straddles if you can read him for it. Do you have a bdfd?

Could +1 have 5bet for the side pot pf even though AI 4bet wasn’t more than half the 3bet?


I ended up jamming when I had no clue wtf 200$ donk bet mean.
1 of the fish behind snapped jam w/AT33 ds
UTG+1 goes into speech mode and saying how the fish always has a set here and how horrible he is preflop. He folds with ease. I suppose he folded Kx or k7? or something like 7365?


Sad he had it but 5 way it's very likely. I found that folding those spots on flop was the right play, in mtt I might even fold pre depending on ICM and spr vs a large raise, but again i'm a nit.

Good post, but hero had a near super premium hand, can’t ever fold pre imo.

Thanks, I have to admit i'm biased here cause i've been doing it recently just not in cash games, I was in similar spots a couple of times in mtt in recent weeks, folded both times and final tables both events, won one of them, I understand its a wrong move to fold pre in cash which is the scenario hero is in, not gonna argue that.

Edit: ICM is a big factor for me in those decisions.
