BTN: $27.99 (112 bb)
SB: $25 (100 bb)
BB: $36.38 (145.5 bb)
UTG: $37.55 (150.2 bb)
MP: $33.76 (135 bb)
Hero (CO): $26.62 (106.5 bb)

Preflop: Hero is CO with A A
2 folds, Hero raises to $0.75, BTN folds, SB raises to $2.50, BB folds, Hero raises to $5.20, SB calls $2.70

Flop: ($10.65) 7 3 J (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $5.80, SB raises to $19.80 and is all-in, Hero...

villain is an unknown.

preflop i should have 4bet bigger to at least 5.50.

on the flop i don't know what to do. does he seriously have JJ? i have 70% equity vs JJ+,AdKd,AdQd. i tend to assume sometimes people call with KK and AA as well vs a 4bet just to trap so i included it here. anyway, pot odds say i need 38.6% equity so i guess i can never fold if he has this range.

however, if he always has only JJ or AdKd then its a clear fold when i only have 22.12% equity. these are 2 extreme cases imo and it will probable be somewhere in between. what do you think about villain's calling range preflop? seems like everybody loves calling 4bets on nl25...

What a trivial hand. You can't fold any overpair in 4bet pot vs anyone. It is just against mathematics, because otherwise you risk to be bluffed out and lose tonn of money.

Hey DrDunne,

Preflop play is good.

Standard cbet sizing in 4bet pot is usually around 1/3rd pot. Might be ok to sometimes make it larger for value vs a fish.

Vs re-raise I really don't think you can ever fold. You've invested too much money and the pot is big enough that villain will get the money in light. Really easy for him to have a hand like QQ/KK here. Bluffs/semi-bluffs also.

yeah i guess i was slightly tilted as i posted and by the time i finished looking at it vs his range its quite clear folding is ofc terrible.

mainly interested to see some opinions of what exactly people will call with preflop because i don't often see so many people 3bet/calling on nl10 and it means i end up postflop in a 4bet pot where i have barely any experience.

my first thought would be that this guy just 3bet a range like this: TT+, ATs+, KJs+, QJs, AJo+, KQo and after the 4bet he has trouble folding part of it so he just calls.
