KQ sqeeze

Was the 4BB open from the reg standard?

At this table yes I think. Not very sure that he opens always 4bb from CO. Maybe because of the fish.

Is it because of the fish or because of a very strong hand?

Smaller bet on turn (half pot) - u fold if raised. Theres another option - x/c turn

I went trough the hands I went for him - he is open raising sometimes 3bb, sometimes 4bb from all positions, so probably depends on the oponent. He is opening 17 from CO.
On the turn I thought he was probably capable of folding AK, but maybe messed up and overplayed the hand.

You say BU is a calling station but he folds pre. How about the SB?
I would make a smaller bet on turn and fold vs a raise.

Yeah I like the idea of smaller bet ott. If he calls do we give up the river?

He showed up with AA which surprised me a little, because thus he was accepting eventually to play 3way pot with the fish also in. Here I was expecting him to 4bet AK(most of the times), KK+.

I think we should x/f river.
Make a note on his bigger open raise with AA.

fold pre as i assume the bigger than usual open is a very tight range.

check turn.

if the cut off is a reg then 3bet calling range in multiway pot will be fairly tight. He is folding KJ, KQ, AQ, AJ and likely flush draws on the turn (potentially calling AJ, AQ diamond combos). You turn KQ in to a bluff on the turn and as a result likely spew chips in this spot. I do like the squeeze though as your trying to iso fish and it will work a lot considering CO opening range should be wider than normal.

Flop calling - AA, KQ, AK, AJdd, AQdd, TT,
Turn Calling/Shoving - AA, TT, AQdd, AKo, AKdd, AJdd.

The turn changes nothing really, you fold out 77-99 on flop, JJ, QQ on turn. I think the fact that when you consider 3bet calling range of villain there are more hands in that range calling than folding so your turn all in is likely a poor all in (I think). Bet fold turn as played.
