Hi.
First session after over 2 months away from the tables due to too much work. There may have been some rustiness in my decisions!
Preflop - is it a call? A decent hand to play against a single raise, but it is a significant part of my stack. Any merit in shoving?
Flop - looks safe enough, no reason to donk?
Turn - went fairly big because Ax is a big part of his range, and it's not folding to a single bet. Maybe 1200 would've been better to end up with a stack better suited for a river shove?
River - think I should definitely bet to try to get value from an Ace. Thought I could represent missed spades with an overbet, do you think it's good or would you go for a smaller bet? Assume I shouldn't worry about hands which beat me (KQ, sets, better Jacks)?
Thanks!
