More than a deepness problem, I think it's a FR problem ;)
I'd rather say "Here is why people shouldn't play FR" :]

This makes no sense. This is why you called the guy instead of 5bet push? Because you're afraid he had aces and ended the session losing a big pot? Don't slowplay KK on NL2 PF.
The rest of the hand is completely standard.

Villain shows AK, Hero: omg im so awesome, i can read him like a book

Can't stop laughing at this :f_tongue:
I know the feeling.
If there's something on NL2 is players that overvalue AK hands.

245bb deep I wouldn’t go all in preflop with anything but AA. Also I don’t see a problem with playing fullring, it’s actually way weaker than 6max.

J8o has no better equity than any other mid-range random hand, yet it seems to win more than its fair share of pots. Not sure why, but I think it is because it covers a range few players play, and when it hits, they never put it in your range.

Or I just notice it when it does :coolface:

Cheers,
VS

Weaker maybe but nitier so there's less fun to get and less money to make.
Most people (including me), once getting used to SH, tend to hate FR. It's really worth the transition and there is more edge to be gained at SH than FR, like there is more at HU than SH but people might find HU too wild and technical.

It is ok to not go crazy preflop when 200+ deep.
What bothers me is the nearly pot bet on turn. It is not made with AKo....

You can also 5bet to like 75bb-80bb and call his 6bet shove, but against a unknown that's playing aggressive so far can easy over play QQ or AK here.

Cheers,
