Oh well another session where winning preflop all-in in HU was like miracle. Lost quite a few with 70% equity and way more in 40-60%. Again last game versus total nit who kept folding his button and overfolding BB but when opponent wins 4-5 times all-in in row...
In 50€ MTT dropped in bubble (like 9 ITM with 12 left) with A2. Defended BB versus aggro big stack BU open. Flop came A96r which I c-c. Turn 4s opening flush draw and called again. River Qh and hero called versus shove. Villain had AK. I had 2s but that's not bad blocker card versus his bluffs.
I think AT and A2 would be close to same value as call hand. A2 might even be better. Depends if villain triple barrel AT or not. For me personally readless it would be close. Likely only double barreling AT. But calling A2 over A8 is clearly better.
AQ I would have 3bet-called pre and AJ just called. 99 and 66 would have probably been best as shove hands so from nutty holding I can have A9, A6, 96s, 64s, Qs9s/Qs6s if those were possible. Would have played those all same way as I would not have raise range on such flop.
So river fold would have been ok option probably but don't mind either way.
