i got cold 4b after squeezing with AKs

BB does not look like idiot to do this with AQ - AT.

You need to win about 45% vs his range to break even.

I prefer fold.

We're 40% against KK+, AK. I think it's close.

It's probably a fold but in-game I'd call and then curse my bad luck when he flips AA.

that's what I normally do I decided not to this time

Yeah, FrozenElf,
Good fold.
Equilab says:

       Equity     Win     Tie
MP2    37.06%   8.19%  28.87% { AKo }
MP3    62.94%  34.08%  28.87% { KK+, AKs, AKo }

But look at the huge amount of that is "Tie".
If you do tie, you just feed the rake monster, and you both lose.

Kiss your 15 BB goodbye and on to the next hand.

I see players shove over a squeeze in zoom much more than ever in regular format.
I suspect that some of them may be bluffing, so I note them.
The idea is that if I see it 3 times, I'll look them up with QQ+ AK+

That will be the one time out of the three they actually have it, of course, but hey, that's poker.

Peace,

As we hold 1 A and 1 K and thus reducing the AK comboes...and as we take into account that he pushed directly... I prefer the safer fold.

Just fold and be proud of yourself. If you then see him doing that every single hand and realize that he is tilting, then you can call AJo. ♦

vs this villian UTG a like 3betting UTG as it would appear he's loose enough - but generally people aren't opening enough and you can consider cold calling it

He is attacking the superwide MP too.

You weren't by any chance playing zoom on PokerStars at apprimately 19h UTC were you?

The reason I asked is that today -- at about that time I discovered that the room was crawling with 3Bettors.

Most (the total unknowns) I just folded. But some I decided to bluff 4Bet. Successfully 3 times.
I did poorly calling the 4Bets (lost 3 of 5) -- but largely due to post-flop getting out-drawn.

I think that having a bluff 4Bet range is a good idea, and I may move some hands from my "Call 3Bet" to "4Bet/fold"

I'm not saying go all spew-happy, but keep in mind that some of these 3Bets are full of doo-doo.

Peace,

yes doo doo

I called for the main reason I thought that he would make many postflop mistakes like bluff like he did in this hand and if he did have a monster I thought I could probable stack him + pick up some pots like that when he has AQ or small pockets

For bluff 4B, better choose the next hands, after the call 3 bet range.

Clear fold (not so easy I know :f_biggrin:)

In fact I believe that even fold with KK can be good here. Against KK+, AK with KK it would be probably almost BE call after rake counting (maybe slightly profitable but not too much and with huge variance) but villain can also often have just KK+ and then call is very bad.
