Hi everyone,

I'm against an unknown who is playing very aggressive trying to take advantage of his chip lead..

What would u do here? I mean, I've seen many laggy opponents making here overbets or potsize bets which really doesn't make sense to me if they have hit that K.. Off course they can have hit that 4, or have a weak pocket pair (since they mostly reraise w/ those bigger pairs).. or Ax hands..

As I'm trying to become a true shark :f_biggrin:.. Can I profitably shove AI here? Off course I wouldn't be doing such thing every single time unless I have some reads on villain etc.. but in this particular hand for example..

Any feedback is highly appreciated..

preflop is fine imo. if BB is defending alot you probably have to just fold, and attack the BB when you are in SB (because you are similar stack sizes)

as played just fold the flop, nothing more you can do.

this is a must raise hand pre, so nothing to say about pre.

I actually think shoving is a good line here, its unlikely he has a better ace (most would have re-raised you pre) same can be said about mid pairs. So he either has Kx or air. With your read his range is so heavily weighted towards air that our A high is ahead here a lot. I like a shove for our remaining 3k chips to win a 2k pot ITM with very little ICM implications.

good little spot I think if you look at it in terms of villain's likely range coupled with your good read.
