Default Re: Big hand vs. Allen Cunningham

Here is my analysis of the hand. AC notices that hero notices AC has been playing tight. AC believes hero is targeting his blind.

Hero miniraises from CO. I would put AC's calling range at any two except 99-QQ, AQ/AK, and two offsuit disconnected cards T or lower.

The flop come ace high. Hero bets. The flop totally missed AC, but AC does not believe hero has an ace. AC calls with the intention of leading out the turn and stealing the pot.

When hero pushes, AC puts him on a draw. There are two flush draws and connected middle cards on the board. Hero could also be protecting a made hand from the draws. AC's calling range is probably any pair or a strong draw. He is definately calling with any ace. Unfortunately AC has nothing. He cannot even beat hero's king high, so he folds.

This hand was played very well by both players on all streets. Hero is excited about bluffing a top pro out of a pot, and develops all sorts of fantasies about how he is a much better player than AC.
