[Closed] nl400 AK ,QQ 2 hands

Hand 1.
I don't like river shove. He will never ever call you with worse in this spot, so this is like burning money - nothing you beat will call you. You either splitting or losing to (unlikely) AA / 99.

So, I think I'll just c/c river hoping he would fire some ridiculuos bluffs / thin valuebets with worse.
Or you can bet river small, hoping to get call from mid PP's or provoke the bluffraises...

Hand 2.
His 3-bet percentage is pretty small, although it is only over 93 hands.
Add to this that he is 3-betting your UTG opening range, so maybe I will not 4-bet him but just flatcall and play postflop.

Once he shoves - it is close and probably you have to call (especially because he may think you are tilted), but I would expect this to be very slightly +EV (if +EV at all...).

thanks for reply . So in the first hand just the river was bad?I was thinking about a check/call ,but was pretty shure he would only value-bet 5x ,99,AA ,maybe Ax.
Can i fold Ak on the flop ? because what does he raise there? 2pairs ,sets ofc ,but does he raise Ax? My plan is ussually bet/fold but he makes such a small damn raise and the turn and river keep me in the pot.

2nd i guess it's pretty standard but i could of just folded to avoid some variance even though i think it's slightly -EV (btw i was playing quite nitty because i had the fish to my left and he played most pots )

Well actually check/fold river is also an option, depending on the sizing. I don't think he will be bluffing air 3 streets...

This is a good plan against some TAG player IMO.

Yes i think most of the people would actually shove there and it is hard to say what dynamics did you have in the past.
Anyway, this can't be bad...

First hand: c/f river sounds good w/o any more reads. People aren't 3barreling with worse, and he probably won't shove the river with Ax, rather bet smaller.

2nd hand: don't 4bet then ask what to do when he 5bet shoves...! Call the 3bet preflop. Or if you have QQ, 4bet and hover your mouse over the call button position for when he does shove so u can snapcall.....

hand no 1:

c/r T! necessary. u rarely get any more value from semibluffs that miss on R if u b/c and c/c T he is usually gonna give up unless hyperspewy. On T he is committed with some combodraws like 67 78, any Ax or even just random fd that he minr on F for pure backdoor bluff for the fun of it (u should not underestimate this) and definitely snaps u with any Ax worse that the fish for whatever reason plays funkily.. it just makes no logic if he has A2 here, but i ve seen it enough of the times to stop strictly questioning any rational behind such things.

hand no 2:

abs standard, its 6handed.. QQ is the nuts.
