So Villian is ...an idiot?
as opposed to hero, who is psychoanalysing a picture of a flower.

Their bet is committing, I think they have to call with AK if you shove. And I think they would play AK like this sometimes. I would shove, and of course sometimes we get stacked when they have the nuts but oh well for 144bbs is still OK.

Nice thumbnail.

You better have some hand of god read to fold this. I actually made a similar fold today that was a huge EV mistake and I realized I was just being a nit. If he has AA/KK you are supposed to lose your stack on this board texture.

Tell us about villain tendencies preflop and postflop. Its difficoult to make assumptions without some read. He is 4 betting oop letz assume he has QQ+ AK , some combo of AQ JJ and TT and some bluff combo as Axs ,87s

You have about 50% equity on this board, when he cbet 80% pot, which hands you think he may have here?the only combo im thinking about are AA KK and Ax of spades .

That was the tricky part.

No reads beyond the avatar (i'll post em if I had em), but micro 4b ranges are a mixed affair and very rarely as linear as GTO. So I'm trying to range them and struggling for worse value combos or AKs

There's always the 'fish' factor. I just wasnt' sure if this is a swing backwards type of exploit spot or not. Probably not

He has same hand as you do.

Correct, almost

Interesting 4b from an Anemone

Couldn't think of a reason they'd size up with range but that's regbrain talk. Fish is thinking linearly 'get value now' ,or something.

Shove was reflex can't fold/calling bad response. Seems like a decent demonstration of needing to call enough in a quasi-toy game. And i suppose, why shoving outperforms call?

The pot is already so big and there is no turn card you are happy to see except Qh, and as I wrote above they are priced in even with AK anyway. The question would be: why calling outperfoms shoving?
