Is it a terrible call?

BB: 264.08 BB (VPIP: 0.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: -, Hands: 1)
Hero (CO): 198.44 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has Ah 5h
fold, fold, Hero raises to 2.2 BB, fold, SB raises to 7.6 BB, fold, Hero raises to 18.32 BB, SB calls 10.72 BB

Flop : (37.64 BB, 2 players) 6h Ad Kc
SB checks, Hero checks

Turn : (37.64 BB, 2 players) 7h
SB bets 28.24 BB, Hero calls 28.24 BB

River : (94.12 BB, 2 players) 2d
SB bets 52.44 BB and is all-in, Hero calls 52.44 BB

SB shows As 6s (Two Pair, Aces and Sixes)
(Pre 57%, Flop 87%, Turn 74%)

Hero shows Ah 5h (One Pair, Aces)
(Pre 43%, Flop 13%, Turn 26%)

SB wins 194.52 BB

Pre-flop I mix between call, raise and fold- this time it's a call. Flop is good for my range, but I can easily value own myself here. Since I will anyway not get three streets of value, I like to give him rope and put this hand in my check-back range. Turn is an obvious call, even without the flush outs probably. River I have no clue, probably a fold? What do you think is his range on the river?

Looks like you put BBs stack size instead of SB but looks like SB has 90bb to start? I think you can probably fold the river. You're only beating bluffs like QJhh JThh 98 54 and he has to be 3betting those, calling a 4bet AND using that sizing on the turn AND jamming them. It's a lot to overlay vs him just having strong hands on a board that heavily favors you in a 4bet pot.

Also, I'd never fold pre vs that sizing. Would be call or 4bet. Flop is whatever.


Thanks a lot!

SB has 99BB starting stack.

To be honest, I think my problem is that during the hand I had no idea what his 4-bet calling range would look like. GTOwizard (with different 3-bet sizing) has AQs, AJs, ATs, KQs, KJs, JTs, 66 -TT, all of them mixed. With the smaller sizing it makes sense to add more hands, as you suggest maybe some more suited connectors, maybe more suited aces or pocket pairs? On the river, he will probably not jam pocket pairs (55,88,99,TT) or kings (KQ, KJ, KT). Value is sets (66, 77) and then aces, not sure until which kicker (maybe AQ,AJ, AT). Then, as you say, the only bluffs are QJ, JT, T9, 54. Against that range my hand has 50% equity. In practice, at low stakes I am playing there is probably less bluffs so that I have far less. Okay, I get what you mean, thanks!

True, since the charts require a larger SB bet size, I should adjust and never fold, thanks.


If deep, 4bet pre bigger. Range bet A and K high flops as they completely slam your range.
