I would fold this hand pre vs 3bet. I would bluff 4bet some weaker Ax like A2s-A5s. Calling is the worst thing you can do with this hand imo.

Only against an aggressive 3better you could +ev call in a multi way pot with a suited Ace I think with flush potential in position. Further it’s smart to use the automatic reload option because than you play always with at least an 100bb stack.

Cheers,

Do not agree much. We close the action and we will be IP postflop.
We can call and see the flop.

We might consider calling with advantage of position

Thx for replies :)

I was considering call here because it's 35c for 1.15$ pot.
When I hit a flush draw flop – correct me if I’m wrong, there’s roughly 10% chance to get it - then I think I have decent implied odd on this spot (my assumption is that one of them at least has a range like ATo+).

Basically I would only continue postflop with flushdraw or 77X (there’s some reverse implied odd there where I lose my stack vs villain holding a full).

I don't have a range of light 4bet here against 2 villains, is that a leak?

Sorry I missed that there was one caller :( I think it makes that call a bit better.
OTF you would have to continue with Ax hits too since you still might be ahead. SB will have decent amount of bluff 3bets and BB can flat with pocket pairs. So you should be ready to continue with 77X, AXX, 7xX with backdoor FD and any FD.

I like your thoughts. And it is not a leak on this lvl.
