3bet pot, river decision
Hi,
I remembered suited aces do not got into the muck when the BB 3bet is on the small side, but I missed it was a pretty frequent 4bet too. In this case BB is 3-betting 18% after 200 hands, I know this stat is not converging very quickly but I think for once not being more tight than theory is OK.
Flop & turn I think I can't play otherwise, and river I find tough. Here GTOwizard calls always, but I'm not sure my opponent will really try to make me fold an A here...
€0.20 NL
Hero (BTN): 118.95 BB
SB: 113.95 BB
BB: 116.95 BB
SB posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB
Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has A♣ 3♣
Hero raises to 2.5 BB, fold, BB raises to 10.5 BB, Hero calls 8 BB
Flop: (21.5 BB, 2 players) 8♦ A♦ 2♠
BB bets 8.05 BB, Hero calls 8.05 BB
Turn: (37.6 BB, 2 players) J♣
BB bets 18.8 BB, Hero calls 18.8 BB
River: (75.2 BB, 2 players) 5♣
BB bets 79.6 BB and is all-in

Regs bluff 5% less than average on Ace high boards in 3bps.
muck it pre..?
If BB is over 3betting aren't we supposed to tighten up our opening range and 4b more (as opposed to overcall)?
Not enjoying calling turn either. If we think BB's bluffing we can't fold river, so the decision is that previous street.
You played this hand well.
Fold on the river.
Villain's line looks really button clicky to me and we unblock missed broadway straight draws. I can't see myself folding here.
The turn already feels thin.
As one of the few low stakes players in my pool that will 4bet bluff, there has to be some value in 4bet bluffing a villain who is 3betting so often, no?
It is hard to say because I only 4bet bluff the thinking players. A lot of the Rex players 3bet hands they shouldn’t from out of position - like A9o A8o etc and have let me take them for 3 streets of value with better Ax. But these people are probably not going to fold Ax to a 4bet and often they will call a jam.
Thanks everyone!
I folded, but after the fact I thought it might be a mistake. The turn sizing seems weird, I've seen this a lot when people have the initiative and a draw, they don't want to check but they don't want to bet too big and finally use 1/2pot.

It's only a mistake if he is a fish.
Huh looking at my db that effect is more pronounced than i thought. It's kind of a prime fish DB spot.
I even have regs overfiring 50% turn size. B-B-J prob still too strong to call but flop and turn seem wp per mda.
